Possible Bug in Circular sketch dialog box

Anonymous
Not applicable

When I take a specific workflow when using the Circular Pattern in a sketch, the Total Angle box is not available when using an 'Angular Spacing' method of 'Angle'.

 

I first created a circle and then added two construction lines, one horizontal and the other 30 degrees away. I then am trying to pattern one of the construction lines inside the 30 degree angle. When I hit Circular Pattern before choosing any geometry, change Angular Spacing to 'Angle', and then choose my geometery, the 'Total Angle' box is not shown. If I leave the geometry selected and toggle from Angle spacing to another option and back, the Total Angle box is available. This is what leads me to believe this is unexpected behavior.

 

In this screenshot, I have the construction line to the left chosen as the object, and the center point of the circle chosen as the center point, and the Total Agle selection isn't available when following the steps above. Choosing the same geometry before selecting Angle reveals the 'Total Angle' optoin.

 

Steps:

 

Create Circular Pattern

Set Angular Spacing to Angle

Choose Object,

Choose Center Point,

Notice that Total Angle box is not available.

Hi,

I have tested it several times and cannot confirm the described behavior.
Please share the file.

You are selecting the dialog box entries out of sequence.  If you select them one at a time from top to bottom, in the dialog box, it works perfectly.  In the Screencast I follow your sequence and the Total Angle box does not appear, follow a top to bottom selection sequence and it appears as expected.
