Rectangular pattern with assigned edge

[NachoShaw]

Hey

I have some code together that can pattern along an axis but i dont need an axis, i need an edge that i have assigned a name to. I can get the edge but i keep getting an error 'Parameter is incorrect'.

I have tried assigned the edge as an edge and also as an object but both give me the same error. what can i do to successfully use the edge with an assigned name as a pattern in my assembly? I dont want to use an axis because the pattern direction is driven by the angle of the edge on the component.

My code-

Dim DocToPattern As ComponentOccurrence = ADef.Occurrences.Item(1)
Dim PatternName As String = "MyPattern"
Dim addin As ApplicationAddIn = My.Application.G._Invapp.ApplicationAddIns.ItemById("{3BDD8D79-2179-4B11-8A5A-257B1C0263AC}")
Dim iLogicAuto As Object = addin.Automation
Dim namedEntities As Object = iLogicAuto.GetNamedEntities(_BMDoc)
Dim oEdge As Edge = namedEntities.FindEntity("PatternEdge")

Dim oParentOccs As ObjectCollection = My.Application.G._Invapp.TransientObjects.CreateObjectCollection
oParentOccs.Add(DocToPattern)

Dim oRectOccPattern As RectangularOccurrencePattern = _ADef.OccurrencePatterns.AddRectangularPattern(oParentOccs, oEdge, True, Spacing, PatternName)

If i replace oEdge with this, it works ok

Dim oXAxis As WorkAxis = _ADef.WorkAxes.Item(1)

 Thanks

Update:

i noticed i had not added in the Pattern Qty in the code example

Dim oRectOccPattern As RectangularOccurrencePattern = _ADef.OccurrencePatterns.AddRectangularPattern(oParentOccs, oEdge, True, Spacing, Qty, PatternName)
