Solids Builder - Array 3D
3D Array - Creates a 3D Array from a solid by multiplying it and merging all solids into one:
The 3D Array activity is useful when you want to multiply a basic element, for example, a stair step can be
multiplied by the number of steps.
The Array 3D activity has the following properties:
- Identification
- Name - name of the activity
The solid name must follow the naming rules
- Solid to Multiply - name of the solid to be multiplied
- Object Visible - indicates whether or not the point should be drawn in the preview
- Repeats - number of repetitions of the solid
- Spacing - distance between elements
- Array Type - type of array to be created, it can be:
- Linear - copies are created aligned on the directional vector
- Polar - copies are created and rotated around the directional vector
- Directional Vector - name of the vector directional pad used to create the copies or rotate the copies
- Center - name of the point that will serve as the center of the Array
Polar
- Height Variation - Increment in the height of the item in the direction of the directional vector for Polar Array
If the text gets too big/small, or the sphere that represents the point gets too big or small, use the buttons ( A, a, , ) at the top of the screen to change the preview
