Just like patternTransform, but works on 2D sketches not 3D solids.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
patternTransform2d(
|
|
sketches: [Sketch],
|
|
instances: integer,
|
|
transform: FunctionSource,
|
|
useOriginal?: bool,
|
|
): [Sketch]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Arguments
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description | Required |
|
|
|----------|------|-------------|----------|
|
|
| `sketches` | [`[Sketch]`](/docs/kcl/types/Sketch) | The sketch(es) to duplicate | Yes |
|
|
| `instances` | `integer` | The number of total instances. Must be greater than or equal to 1. This includes the original entity. For example, if instances is 2, there will be two copies -- the original, and one new copy. If instances is 1, this has no effect. | Yes |
|
|
| `transform` | `FunctionSource` | How each replica should be transformed. The transform function takes a single parameter: an integer representing which number replication the transform is for. E.g. the first replica to be transformed will be passed the argument `1`. This simplifies your math: the transform function can rely on id `0` being the original instance passed into the `patternTransform`. See the examples. | Yes |
|
|
| `useOriginal` | [`bool`](/docs/kcl/types/bool) | If the target was sketched on an extrusion, setting this will use the original sketch as the target, not the entire joined solid. Defaults to false. | No |
|
|
|
|
### Returns
|
|
|
|
[`[Sketch]`](/docs/kcl/types/Sketch)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Examples
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// Each instance will be shifted along the X axis.
|
|
fn transform(id) {
|
|
return { translate = [4 * id, 0] }
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Sketch 4 circles.
|
|
sketch001 = startSketchOn(XZ)
|
|
|> circle(center = [0, 0], radius = 2)
|
|
|> patternTransform2d(instances = 4, transform = transform)
|
|
```
