Rectangular

The grid determines the size and distribution of the elements over the support.

Axis System

An axis system is required to define the elements' orientation and projection on the support.

This axis system is, by default, inherited from the support definition.

Note: If you define manually one axis only, the other axis is automatically (and randomly) calculated by Speos in the 3D view. However, the other axis in the Definition panel may not correspond to the axis in the 3D view. Please refer to the axis in the 3D view.

Rectangular Grid

Elements are distributed according to a rectangular pattern. The following parameters can be set to customize this distribution:

X start: Start value for the feature size along X Grid (mm).
X end: End value for the feature size along X Grid (mm).
Y start: Start value for the feature size along Y Grid (mm).
Y end: End value for the feature size along Y Grid (mm).
X Angle: Angle made by X axis and the horizontal edge of the elements (deg).
Y Angle: Angle made by Y axis and the vertical edge of the elements (deg).
X count: Number of elements along X axis.
Y count: Number of elements along Y axis.
X size: Size of the elements along X axis (mm).
Y size: Size of the elements along Y axis (mm).
