  Hi Benjamin P.
  
  I tried to recreate your problem and found that "image 2" is expected behavior, if you are changing the count to 1 as shown in "image 3". It will keep the original component only. As you are using move to create pattern this is the expected behavior.
  
  You can try using linear pattern and other pattern feature options available from Design>>Create. Let me know if you need further assistance.
  
  Thanks and Regards

  Hi Benjamin P. ,
  
  I was able to reproduce your problem at my end. When I tried changing the Count to 1, component in SpaceClaim lost the association with pattern. I am discussing it with the development and will let you know once I have any update.
  
  This issue is resolved in Discovery and pattern doesn't destroy when count is set to 1. So maybe till I get any update. Can you please try this in Discovery and let me know how it goes?
  
  Thanks and Regards

  Hi again ! Atharv Joshi .
  
  Many thanks for your help, i am now able to use DISCOVERY.
  
  I'm struggling to understand what is the difference between SpaceClaim and Discovery ! It's seems that we have more capabilites with spaceclaim (but no simulation.)
  
  Can you tell me ?
  
  Best regards, Benjamin

  Thanks for the update Benjamin P.
  
  SpaceClaim is a legacy product from Ansys and provides capabilities for modeling, geometry cleanup, drawing sheet, sheet metal operations, reverse engineering etc.
  
  Discovery on the other hand provides you most of these geometry related features with additional front up simulation helping you explore design variation, optimize and accelerate your product design cycle.
  
  You can go through this help documentation for more information About Ansys Discovery
