clock face circular pattern

charles_arnoldcharles_arnold Member Posts: 6

I am trying to create a clock face with the hour numbers. I have done the following:

  1. create variable in the feature list: count as number = 0
  2. create a second variable in the feature list: count as number = #count + 1
  3. create a sketch. draw text using the expression: toString(#count)
  4. extrude the text
  5. create a circular feature pattern:
    1. instance count: 12
    2. angle: 360 deg
    3. features to pattern:
      1. sketch
      2. #count
      3. extrude
    4. reapply features is ticked

The pattern creates 12 numbers but they are 1's. The text does not update with each instance!

Any thoughts will be gratefully received.
