- Curve Driven Patterns
The Curve Driven Pattern tool 
allows you to create patterns along a planar or 3D curve. To define the pattern, you can use any sketch segment, or the edge of a face (solid or surface), that lies along the plane. You can base your pattern on an open curve, or on a closed curve, such as a circle.
- Linear Patterns
Use linear patterns to create multiple instances of one or more features that you can space uniformly along one or two linear paths.
- Circular Patterns
Use circular patterns to create multiple instances of one or more features that you can space uniformly around an axis.
- Sketch Driven Patterns
Using sketch points within a sketch, you can specify a feature pattern. The seed feature propagates throughout the pattern to each point in the sketch. You can use sketch driven patterns for holes or other feature instances.
- Table Driven Patterns
Using X-Y coordinates, you can specify a feature pattern. Hole patterns using X-Y coordinates are a common application for table driven patterns. However, you can use other seed features, such as a boss, with table driven patterns. You can also save and load the X-Y coordinates of a feature pattern, and apply them to a new part.
- Saving and Loading Table Driven Patterns
With multibody parts, you can save and load different table driven patterns for each of the different bodies in the document.
- Mirror Feature
You can use Mirror to create a copy of one or more features, mirrored about a face or a plane.
- Fill Patterns
The Fill Pattern feature lets you select an area defined by co-planar faces or a sketch that lies on co-planar faces. The command fills the defined region with a pattern of features or a predefined cut shape.
- Variable Patterns
You can pattern features across planar and nonplanar surfaces and vary the dimensions and references for each pattern instance.
- Cosmetic Patterns
The cosmetic pattern feature allows you to cosmetically define and display patterns of holes instead of showing fully-tessellated solid models. Rebuild time is greatly reduced because pattern geometry is only cosmetic.
