Cell Generator

Creating cell structures

The cell generator gives you the capability of creating objects in a matrix layout (multiple cells above and / or beside each other). The starting point is always the lower left corner of the cell group.

In addition you have the following options:

Distribute cells horizontally:
Using this options the cells are automatically distributed along the baseline. Use the button "calculate" to calculate the horizontal distance between the cells.

Maintain Horizontal Offsets:
The left and right offsets are not considered in the calculation.

Combine Cells:

The cell matrix will be created as a combined object.

Restore Direction:

If you used the function "Calculate Angle" before using the cell generator, you can recall the stored direction using this option.
