PartDesign GenericPattern help

Post by oscilococcinum »

Hi everyone :D
I came across GenericPattern function, as far as i know its available only in LinkBranch. I've tried to search for some tutorials, but my google-fu is week in that case. Is there any place where I can read about that tool?

...GenericPattern allows you to use an expression to control the pattern, including the number of patterns, and since you can call Python function in expression using my branch, you can practically do anything with it...
