FR: Array spacing based on bounding boxes

Open SpeeQz1 opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

I hope that I haven't missed such a feature already but it would be nice to be able to change the spacing between elements of an array populated with the children of a para series based on the bounding box and not the center of the object.

maybe i'll do something some day. As of now,if you know the sizes of bounding boxes upfront, you can set up a linear array with custom values, either entered directly into property editor, or to be fetched from a spreadsheet.

@DeepSOIC doesn't the linear array use only a single value for the step and not an array of values?

it can do both. Set Values Source property to "Values Property", and then use Values property to enter the individual positions along the line. Similarly, you can set it up to pull a column from a spreadsheet.
