patterns

Hello, I'm looking for the best way to make a Honeycomb wall. unfortunately my part has some "complex" geometry so I can't seem to get the fill pattern tool to work. I started by created a single cell and then orignally did multiple linear patterns to form the wall. I have tried this 2 difference ways one taking 8.91…

I have been having issues with circular patterns. I am trying to create a modular cylinder that uses a twist snap connection. I did some test prints with a different file that I was able to create the revolve 1 and revolve 2 and extrude 3 features and then circular pattern them 4 times across the full 360 degrees. However…

I need help on how to do a Honeycomb pattern (2.5mm) on a 300 mm Diameter Sphere. I have tried with video assistance but the tutorials that I have been able to find are for faces with smaller face angles.

I know how to draw the "figure eight" shape, but I don't really know how to get this to pattern in such a way as seen above. Any help would be much appreciated.

I am working on a part studio where multiple parts with linear patterns of holes need to overlap so the holes maintain their concentric relationships. I have done this by taking the original sketch with my hole pattern and copy/pasting it into other sketches from which I am extruding the various parts. I assumed that the…

Hi everyone, I'm trying to arrange a specific type of body along a Möbius strip in Onshape. However, when I use the pattern feature to distribute the body along the strip, the body does not rotate as it follows the path. I need the body to rotate correctly to match the twist of the Möbius strip, but I haven't been able to…

I am new to FeatureScript and am looking to create a (seemingly) simple script that places points along a curve, evenly spaced. Without getting into other spacing options, I would first like some guidance on how to do this given only a distance and a quantity, starting from the end. I tried to dissect the very nice Curve…

Dear forum Is there a way to configure the individual parts of a pattern individually? I want to create a LED matrix with different signs as a configuration. Unfortunately it looks like I need to insert each of the 512 LEDS as a individual part to be able to change some of the colours with the configurations. Any ideas?

Is there a way to break the associativity in a pattern (in assembly) I regulary need to move 1 (or few) of the elements in a pattern. patterning is great for an initial instancing and placement. but afterwards I need to be able to move the individual parts around.. Thanks in advance. 

Hi, Is it possible to transform/copy a part to multiple mate connectors at once? I only seem to be able to do it one by one? And if possible to select multiple mate connectors, can you also account for configurations where you can have more (or less) mate connectors to appear (depending on the configuration made) eg copy…

Hello, I'm creating a practice 3D print for tapered heat set inserts to determine the right size. I'd like to create an array of lofts between various sized circles on a rectangular prism. Here's my part: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/0fd63e74f8558ca407410cd8/w/150d7ed514b4c73afde5d7d4/e/c63e92e94cc05653e7b3026e My two…

I need to copy a certain feature a bunch of times in a sheet metal part (and preferably even to other sheet metal parts , in same part studio) . but I need to finish the part before anty type of pattern/ paste of features will work? problem is: features added after finishing sheet metal part are not showing up in the flat…

transformResultIfNecessary(context, id, remainingTransform); I've noticed this line of code in a bunch of the std library (31 of the 192 tabs). I don't remember this being all over in the past. Reading in feature.fs there's a large comment about how it enables feature based patterns. Are there any tricks to using this line…
