repeanting a feature as a pattern on a curved surface.

Hello,

        I am designing perfume bottles and for that i need to to repeat a semi circle to repeat over a curved surface fo the bottle. To simplify the problem i have created curved surface and made a semi cirle as a feature, now i want the feature to repeat on the curved surface. I have tried to rectangle pattern, aswell as the circular pattern in all possible ways i can think.

        Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

 

P.s. I have hp I7 processor, 8 gb ram, windows 7 and am using autodesk inventor pro 2013

 If you see one of the black bottles attached with this message, it has small dots on the it's right side. I want a similar pattern on my design. But cannot figure out how do it.

You will need to use the Curve Driven Pattern functionality as done in this image.   (see bumps on grips)
