In the Circular Pattern PropertyManager, there is an option called Instances to Skip. This feature allows you control over which instances are created in your pattern. In the graphics area, a preview is shown of your pattern. The cursor changes when you hover over each pattern instance. Simply click on the instances to toggle whether they are skipped or not. Note that the first instance, the seed feature, cannot be skipped.
