Limit Y axis height to a count.
« on: August 01, 2019, 06:06:42 PM »
Very quick question I hope. I am sure I missing a very simple trick here. What is the easiest way to limit the y height of an array to a count. for example if I had a brick wall and I wanted to limit the height to 4 bricks high (or 4 rows) instead of stipulating a height in scene units or with a  spline.

TIA
Anthony

Hi

for this You need to export Generators Y Size parameter.
And export Bricks Y Size Attribute.
Then multiply Brick Size by the number of bricks You want and plug that to Generators Y size.

Thanks, unfortunately in this instance this approach didn't work as I have a random scale transform on the y in order to produce a dry stone wall effect. What I ended up doing was simply switching off slice.

Thanks again
