To Create a Reference Pattern from Pattern Recognition, Symmetry Recognition, Mirror, or Flexible Pattern Features
1. Select a feature that references the geometry of one of the following features:
◦ Any member of a pattern recognition feature
◦ Any member of a symmetry recognition feature
◦ Any member of a mirror feature created in Creo Flexible Modeling
◦ Any member of a flexible pattern feature created in Creo Flexible Modeling
|
At the external edges of the feature where it intersects the model, select intent edges as references.

2. Click > . The
Pattern tab opens with the pattern type set to
Reference. The pattern leader is identified by

.
3. To exclude a pattern member from the pattern, click its black dot, and the dot changes to
![](../../part_modeling/flexible_modeling/images/pat_dot_white.png)
. To restore the pattern member, click the white dot.
