I have a solid cylinder and want to draw 5 holes through it. I position the first hole using the sketch and punch it through. Now I want to rotate it around an axis or maybe in a linear patter to make 5 more holes. I know how to rotate and copy but you have to do one at the time. Is there a way to tell it I want 4 more holes or whatever?

Thanks,

Glenn

We don’t have patterns/arrays yet.
