Component Repeat

Hi all

I want to make a linear repetition of a component, so far so good^^

The problem is that in this repetition, I want to modify distances between certain occurrences.

EX: I have a linear repetition of x16 to make, these 16 repetitions are represented by groups of 4 and each group is distant from each other by a variable value...

Is there a function for this?

Hello Etudes_20,

I advise you to use the "Linear Pattern Driven by a Table" function if your repeat direction is not complex.

Hello,
A cool thing too, repetition driven by a sketch, so you can set up the sketch and then the repetition follows with it.

If you need other occurrences, you add points to your sketch.

If I understood correctly: 4 different groups spaced 4 evenly spaced rooms?
To be done in 2 repetitions:
- 1 classical repetition to create the basic group;
- 1 repetition per sketch that repeats the 1st repetition

Hello

Don't forget the table-driven repetition which offers a lot of flexibility when the space dimensions change often  or the functions  to be ignored change at the same time.

It seems to me that it is possible to combine this with "repetition in an area". See also  "variable repetitions"
