When we want to remove a geometry from a pattern, the approach we take is to right click on a face of that geometry, then click “make independent”. However, in some cases, you may find the option “make independent” disappeared. This is because that geometry being clicked on belongs to a component. And then that component belongs to a pattern. To solve that, we can go to the geometry tree first, then click to expand the component. Then if you right click on the geometry face again, you will see the option “make independent”. Please refer to the attached document for additional details. Alternatively, you can use scripts to achieve that: #First select the component. This can be a for loop to select all the components in pattern selection = Selection.Create(GetRootPart().Components[0].Components[0]) #Then make it independent result = ComponentHelper.MakeIndependent(selection, None) Keywords: SpaceClaim; Make Independent; Geometry Selection; Pattern; SpaceClaim Script
