Where is my Rectangular Pattern

Greetings

 

This is such a basic question that I'm embarrassed to ask, but my mind won't direct me to the answer. I created a, IPT part, then did a rectangular pattern. I made a change to the sketch and now I have to change the pattern and I can't find the pattern no matter how hard I try R clicking the sketch or extrusion.

 

Thanks

Vince

Was the pattern in the sketch?

 

If so then you can right click sketch elements (part of the pattern) and choose Edit Pattern.

 

Let us know how that goes.

I created a simple pattern in Sketch mode and I don't know why, but I can't find what you are saying. If you have time, please see the attached IPT.

 

Thank you

But I would strongly suggest that you use feature pattern over sketch pattern..  Make one by a sketch and then pattern using

I only have access to 2017 here but I will look at it later on, unless someone else manages to open your 2018 file.

 

A quick way to edit sketch patterns is by showing all constraints and then you can right click pattern constraint or one of the sketch elements and choose Edit Pattern like this:

Thank you for your simple solution. I normally pattern the feature way, but I was experimenting.
