|
Repeat a 3-dimensional solid along a linear path, with a dynamic amount
|
|
|
|
of distance between each repetition, some specified number of times.
|
|
|
|
///
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
patternLinear3d(
|
|
solidSet: SolidSet,
|
|
instances: integer,
|
|
distance: number,
|
|
axis: [number],
|
|
useOriginal?: bool,
|
|
) -> [Solid]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Arguments
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description | Required |
|
|
|----------|------|-------------|----------|
|
|
| `solidSet` | [`SolidSet`](/docs/kcl/types/SolidSet) | The solid(s) 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 |
|
|
| `distance` | `number` | Distance between each repetition. Also known as 'spacing'. | Yes |
|
|
| `axis` | `[number]` | The axis of the pattern. A 2D vector. | Yes |
|
|
| `useOriginal` | `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
|
|
|
|
[`[Solid]`](/docs/kcl/types/Solid)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Examples
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
exampleSketch = startSketchOn('XZ')
|
|
|> startProfileAt([0, 0], %)
|
|
|> line(end = [0, 2])
|
|
|> line(end = [3, 1])
|
|
|> line(end = [0, -4])
|
|
|> close()
|
|
|
|
example = extrude(exampleSketch, length = 1)
|
|
|> patternLinear3d(axis = [1, 0, 1], instances = 7, distance = 6)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// Pattern a whole sketch on face.
|
|
size = 100
|
|
case = startSketchOn('XY')
|
|
|> startProfileAt([-size, -size], %)
|
|
|> line(end = [2 * size, 0])
|
|
|> line(end = [0, 2 * size])
|
|
|> tangentialArcTo([-size, size], %)
|
|
|> close(%)
|
|
|> extrude(length = 65)
|
|
|
|
thing1 = startSketchOn(case, 'end')
|
|
|> circle(center = [-size / 2, -size / 2], radius = 25)
|
|
|> extrude(length = 50)
|
|
|
|
thing2 = startSketchOn(case, 'end')
|
|
|> circle(center = [size / 2, -size / 2], radius = 25)
|
|
|> extrude(length = 50)
|
|
|
|
// We pass in the "case" here since we want to pattern the whole sketch.
|
|
// And the case was the base of the sketch.
|
|

|
|
|
```js

|> circle(center = [-size / 2, -size / 2], radius = 25)
|
|
|> extrude(length = 50)
|
|
|
|
// We pass in `thing1` here with `useOriginal` since we want to pattern just this object on the face.
