Pls see attached image, i cannot select the icopied assy for pattern

nor cant detect even while manually selecting it in the assembly.

Thanks,

Rizford,

Have you tried patterning using this method?

[rdelacruz1984]

Yes this method works for me. I'm just wondering why pattern in assembly doesn't work, i know that

2012 version doesnt behave like this.

I am still using 2012.  Is icopy new to 2013?

I am guessing it is.  Why it doesn't work with assemblies is anyones guess.

We could ask why, why, why on a lot of things.

I need to do an icopy assembly like the one in this video and be able to pattern it just like he does

Not sure if this topic will be read, but in case somebody stumbles on the same problem, I have just described it HERE.

It seems the way iCopy behavior changed about Inventor 2013, and the pattern of them was included into iCopy functionality.

Hope it helps,
