Scale patterns :/

Hey UU quick question when it comes to scale patterrns

I see on uke minutes he teaches the c pattern scale
That starts on the c string and goes

G-------
C-0-1--
E-0-1-4
A-0-2-3

I realize there are alot of different patterns available like the ones supplies by acousticmonster . And the f style pattern shown below

But these patterns downt sound like the c style that goes from low to high. Right ?

But what is giving me a hard time is that the c style major pattern like in uke minutes you move the scale up the fretboard to get a d scale or e and so on. But what if you want to play a "g" scale in the lower octave is there a way to manipulate that c style pattern to play a g scale up top with some open notes and not make it sound bad

But even the f major scale it goes down to the the fret board it dowesnt really make it conventional to play a solo right

And I might have answered my own question. The e or d scale in that link I just posted. Well I could memorize that pattern and move it down to an f . Memorizing scale patterns and the fretboard ant easy
