| Name | Type | Description |
| ParentFeatures | ObjectCollection | Input ObjectCollection object that contains the features to be patterned. The collection could contain the various part features, sheet metal features, work planes, work axes, work points, or a SurfaceBody.

| Sketch | Object | Input PlanarSketch or Sketch3D object that contains the sketch points to locate the pattern occurrences. |
| BasePoint | Variant | Optional input object that indicates the position of base point. This can be a SketchPoint, SketchPoint3D, WorkPoint, or GeometryIntent that indicates a point on geometry. If a GeometryIntent is provided, you can specify the mid-point of sketch line, start/end/mid-point of a linear edge, the center of a circular/elliptical edge, planar face center, the start/mid/end point of the axis of a cylindrical/conical face, or the center of torus/spherical face.
