See attached. The grey is from a Photoshop image after a lot of tweaking. I need to place this pattern on a display that is much wider. That requires the pattern to repeat further along the horizontal access than this image does (e.g. further to the right).
So I decided to try and reproduce it in a vector format in order to step/repeat... but now that I've drawn and duped the base image to create one "column", I can't figure out how to both duplicate it over and over AND apply the appropriate perspective for each subsequent column/row to follow the existing pattern--and extend it beyond to the right. Any ideas?

Does this represent a 3-dimensional design?
Or 2-dimensional?
You could try if it works on the perspective grid.

Thanks for the reply. After a lot of futzing around, we gave up on this perspective approach and are going with a different pattern.

Maybe draw your pattern straight, then use object> Pattern Make and fill a rectangle with the pattern. Then use the transforms shear and rotate while holding down tilde key (to transform pattern and not shape).
