"Turbo" Patterns with Pro/ENGINEER

Pro/ENGINEER provides fantastic flexibility with respect to Geometric multiplication or patterns of geometry. These patterns, whether simple or complex, can sometimes adversely impact performance. There are, as with most functions of Pro/ENGINEER, many options when creating patterns. Find here how to speed up regeneration time as well as allow for great design flexibility with Turbo Patterns.

Once you've created this turbo pattern - how do you go about selecting ALL the surfaces at once to color them in (for rendering)?? I tried coloring my object first and then making the pattern, but to no avail :/

Obviously it is not viable to sit and select every surface individually!

thank you

I am glad to know that something I discovered on my own is considered a best practice.

Anyone who would replicate patterns piecemeal as shown in the first part of the video is a moron.

I got a question ... what is the best way to do a pattern along a curved or spherical surface?

I wanted to put a pattern on the curved part of a cylinder but it would not let me. So I did feature copy/rotate over and over until the entire surface was done.
