How do I edit a rectangular pattern?

[seumas59]

How do I edit a rectangular pattern?  I'm practicing on a bookshelf, which has 4 shelves I created using the rectangular pattern tool.  I now want to go back in and increase that number to 6 shelves.  How do I do that?  Thanks.,

I am assuming this is in the model and not a model sketch, you did not attach a picture much less your model so I cannot be sure.  If it is, right click on the pattern in the model timeline and edit it.  If you do not use a timeline, then you now see a good reason to use one.  Attach you model and the forum users may be able to point you in the right direction.

My apologies, it was late and I didn't take the time to attach the model. Here is the link to the model.  https://a360.co/3khel8h. 

I have been learning to use the timeline, but I don't see an icon to use to return to the pattern step.

I appreciate your help.

Right click on the Pattern feature in you Timeline and select Edit Feature.

Hi,

I hope that GIF will help for now.

By the way, you can also define the quantity in the parameter list. But you have to make sure that the option "No 'Unit" is marked.

That's perfect Guenther.  It never occurred to me to use the main timeline, I just tried all the options I could think of with the shelves.  Thank you so much.
