How to select stacked circular pattern icon

Hello all,

 

I am new to Fusion 360. I created a design that has multiple circular patterns at the same center point. In Edit Sketch I need to edit or delete one of them, but the only one I can select is the last one created. How do I select one that is hiding underneath the last circular pattern added?

Thanks,

Gary

Update: I figured out that if you select the top icon, right click and then Edit Circular Pattern, it cycles through the underlying patterns which lets you edit multiple circular patterns. However, they are random in order. Also, since there is no Delete button on the dialog (it only has OK and Cancel) you can't delete the currently displayed Circular Pattern.

In my case, I have 6 stacked circular patterns and the only way to delete the one I want is to delete all of the circular items generated and it will delete the underlying pattern.

Hi,

If you want to take full advantage of parametrics, you create the patterns not in sketches but as features.
