I really like using the Pattern tool But whenever I finish using it I need to do some added command afterwards for example, I build a table where it’s front panel has the same repeating lines, which, after using the pattern command I have to take all of these lines created in the pattern tool and move them inside by -3 mm (for example). So today in order to do that I have to zoom in and out of each and every line in order to select them.

Thank you 🙂

Pattern entities move together, why do you need to select all?

So they could all be edited at the same time - See attached example…

Edited or created?  
For modification/editing the HBPM beta already solves it. For creation you possibly miss “select all similar faces”. Selection improvements are on our radar, but I can’t give you a time estimate on when we get to them.
