PR #3748 allow multiselection on creation of pattern

[openBrain]

Part of your PR is this commit: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull ... 68f133d0ea
What's the point about it? The commit message is "Merge branch 'master' of github.com:FreeCAD/FreeCAD into PD-patterning".

I didn't tested what vocx said above, but I know this kind of commit is always created when one update an own branch versus FreeCAD master using the online Github functions. IIRC, there isn't any mean to update a fork on the website, so you actually have to use this merging commit.

I know about these merge commits but the change on the file FeatureTransformed.cpp where is this coming from? The file hasn't been touched for several weeks.

Uh, this should not have happened. Sorry. (I didn't noticed this, just made a merge commit but can imagine why this slipped in.)

However, this PR is more or less required to make my PR really usable:
https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull/3741
because without this PR all operations containing primitives wouldn't pattern. (E.g. In my real-life use cases I have to pattern primitives in combination with subtractive features.)

With git commit 94ca4388e you can move the items directly with the mouse.

many thanks!

Here is the example (didn't have access to FreeCAD sooner).

Thanks, I understand now the issue.
Thanks to Werner's today's additions one can now change the order in the dialog list, but it is not yet taken into account, meaning, if you accept the dialog and reopen it, it still shows the old order -> I'll have a look at the weekend.
