You
can repair missing direction references in linear component patterns and circular component
patterns.
For
linear component patterns, SOLIDWORKS repairs the missing direction reference by
selecting a reference on the component that is the same type and orientation, and is
either the same location or the closest entity to the missing
reference.
For circular component patterns, SOLIDWORKS repairs the missing
direction reference by selecting a reference on the component that is the same
entity and is coaxial with the missing axis. If there are multiple options for a
replacement axis, SOLIDWORKS selects the closest to the missing axis.
You cannot use
Auto Repair
in Large Design Review
mode.
To repair missing references
in linear or circular component patterns:
- Open a model that contains a linear component pattern or a
circular component pattern with a missing direction reference.
- Right-click the pattern and in the context toolbar, click
Auto Repair
.
If
SOLIDWORKS cannot repair the error, you are prompted to repair the
pattern manually.
