Now the holes need to be marked with numbers for engraving purposes.</P><P>So I made a new sketch, numbered one hole with the 'text' command, but when I use the rectangular pattern in sketchmode, you can't select the text, and neither when back in Design (out of sketch) with Create/Pattern.</P><P>My goal was to get all the numbers in the exact same position above the hole's with, at first, the same text. Then unlock the pattern and change the text in the appropriate numbers. Much quicker then doing all holes apart.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Can this be done??

Might save a bit of time as it's easy to keep the copies aligned. You could add constraints and dimensions from a datum point as well to keep them in the correct position.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Mark</P> Fri, 20 Sep 2019 14:45:22 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-support-forum/is-it-possible-to-rectangular-pattern-text-for-engraving/m-p/9037482#M136653 HughesTooling 2019-09-20T14:45:22Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-support-forum/is-it-possible-to-rectangular-pattern-text-for-engraving/m-p/9037496#M136654 <P>Hi,</P><P>maybe this workaround is acceptable to you?</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="position numbers" style="width: 480px;"><img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/679372i5EC4685892B56D5C/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="position numbers.gif" alt="position numbers" /><span class="lia-inline-image-caption" onclick="event.preventDefault();">position numbers</span></span></P><P>günther</P> Fri, 20 Sep 2019 14:56:17 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-support-forum/is-it-possible-to-rectangular-pattern-text-for-engraving/m-p/9037496#M136654 g-andresen 2019-09-20T14:56:17Z
