Can a design table change the # of sides of a polygon?

[twobit]

Hey folks,

I am trying to easily create several configurations of a polygon using just a design table. I can't seem to figure out how to enter the numer of sides of the polygon as a referenced dimension. Does anybody know if this has a reference name?

I can do any number of work-arounds, but I would prefer to do it this way as it would be best for the long run.

Thanks,

Driving Sketch tools with a Design table

Sorry, but Design tables cannot drvie sketch tools. This would include the number of edgss on a polygon or the number of instances in a sketch pattern.

I hope this is a help,
