To use a user-defined pattern, download and install the pattern archive for the user-defined pattern.
Before you can complete this task, you must decide which user-defined pattern you want to use from a pattern community site.
Before you can update a pattern archive to a newer version of an installed pattern archive, you must uninstall the current version of the pattern archive, see Uninstalling a pattern archive.
You can now use the user-defined pattern in your projects, see Using patterns.
