Hi, I am creating a sketch that will reuse an element four times. Is there a way of "duplicating" this so that if I make a change to the master, it's replicated on all the copies? I have attached my working file and an image of my previous print demonstrating why having a linked version would be convenient.
I needed to widen the narrow channel and move the hex up a couple of mm. It would be very beneficial to do this on one and apply it to all the others.
As you can see in the image, the element is repeated four times, two of them rotated 180 degrees.
Also any other tips in terms of my sketch would be welcome, still very new to this so in the massive learning phase!

Hi,
These are changes that are made in the original f3d file and cannot be shown in a shared STL.

usually better to pattern in the modeling space, rather than trying to duplicate sketch shapes. quick example attached-
Awesome, so looking at the document, is this correct?
You create a centre line sketch you use as a point to rotate the first object. You then use the circular pattern to create the first one. Then, you use a rectangular pattern on a straight axis and set a distance.
The only thing I don't know how to do is how to create a sketch with two different planes. One line goes straight up and one along the "floor."
