Hi Benjamin P. ,
I was able to reproduce your problem at my end. When I tried changing the Count to 1, component in SpaceClaim lost the association with pattern. I am discussing it with the development and will let you know once I have any update.
This issue is resolved in Discovery and pattern doesn't destroy when count is set to 1. So maybe till I get any update. Can you please try this in Discovery and let me know how it goes?
Thanks and Regards
