I have a top level assembly with several parts assembled to it. Each of these parts contains a pattern feature.
I use ilogic to pass two parameter values from the top level assembly to each part. These control the number of features in the pattern in the x and y directions (horizontal and vertical)
This works fine
Problem is that these patterns are taking an eternity to update in the part I timed this part update at 18 minutes.
I know that the problem lies in the size of the pattern. The one i ran was 14 x 40 (560 instances)
If i run a 1 x 1 pattern it finishes very quickly.
All patterns are "optomized" chose that option when i created the patterns.
So i am looking for ideas on how i can speed up the update process. By the way I have to do accomplish this with patterns for reasons i am not going to get into here.
Any suggestions gratefully accepted
