How do I set the number of identical parts in a product in Catia V5R20?

Hello

I'd like to know how I can change the number of identical parts in an assembly.

Let me explain: I have solar panels whose number I regularly change in length and width. For example 8 x 3 or 10x5 if I want more power.

I would like to set my number of solar panels in my assembly. They are spaced 1.5 cm apart in length and 2.5 cm in width. I would also like to set these spacings on all the solar panels I add.

Do you have an idea?

 1 I would like to know how I can change the number of identical parts in an assembly.

Two possibilities

Manual (set multi-instantiation).

More advanced pattern reuse (via a skeleton piece).

 2 I would like to set my number of solar panels in my assembly. They are spaced 1.5 cm apart in length and 2.5 cm in width. I would also like to set these spacings on all the solar panels I add.

You have to create the user parameters in the skeleton part that will drive the custom repetition (which is used by the pattern reuse in the ass).

Oh yes, instantaneous on a pattern seems to me the best option! I'll try soon and keep you posted! Thank you:)
