Hello
Would it be possible to set up an assembly (sketch + 3D part) so that when I add my 3D part, it will duplicate itself and automatically position itself on the defined points?
I'm familiar with the sketch-driven repeat feature, but is there a way to automate this process as soon as the 3D part is selected?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Kind regards
Hello;
Technically it is possible to position a component on a predefined position, either with the constraint references, or by using this component as a " Library Function" (which is roughly the same thing). On the other hand, for the automation of the repetition, I dry.

Hello
What you need is to save an assembly model containing a virtual part, the sketch, and the repeat.
So, when creating from this template, just replace the virtual component with the required component, the repetition updates and that's it...
But no.
→Unable to save a document template that references another:
If you are using SW PDM, however, this principle is possible because a pdm model uses an assembly file with the .sldasm extension, not .asmdot.
