Problems while pattern joint components

Hi, I'm currently working on a design, the issue is when I pattern or copy some jointed components,  the joint doesn't apply to the patterned components or the copied ones, once the copy or pattern has made I need to apply new joints, is there a way to make it faster? TIA

can you post an example model?

-joints out side of a component don't copy with patter or copy components.

-joints in a component, ie an assembly, do copy. (meaning your copying/patterning the whole assembly)

Rigid joints? Just use Assemble -> Rigid group to join many components with one command.

works for me with copy and pattern, but not with mirror.  (honestly, not sure what I would expect mirror to do)

can you screen cast it with a copy or pattern?

Yes there is the easy way - after Mirror, window select the new components and rigid group.

 

Might help...

Hi @carlos218689MC9 ,

 

Thanks for your Post.

 

Currently we are supporting Pattern and Copy-Paste joints with assembly but Mirror is not working.

Better you can use Copy-Paste or Paste New instead of Mirror so your joints also gets copied with component.

 

In mirror you need to manually added again that joints.
