Y_Evenly problem
« on: January 14, 2022, 12:10:46 PM »
Hey! Tell me what I'm doing wrong. Why do I have to provide the x-dimension for everything to work?
And yet I ran into a problem. In the second array, X_Corner doesn't work until I do Y_Evenly
Thanks!

Hi, This is because you have an empty segment node that has no X Size. If you tried to distribute a zero-sized segment as a Y Evenly segment it would cause an infinite loop that freezes the program. To prevent this, RailClone will simply stop the array building when it detects this issue instead. Overriding a segment with an X Size as you have done is a way of working around that.

I hope the makes sense,
Paul

Tell me, did I correctly distribute the creation of the array?

Friends, who is not difficult, please check my scene for errors. I will be very grateful!
And please tell me. If in all segments I set the alignment to Pivot, then which segment do I need to navigate in order to set it up correctly? How do I understand from Default?

Hi!

Thanks for the file. I'd be tempted to use sequence operators instead for something like this. You might find it a little easier to set up. Please see the attached for an example.

For more information about what the Default pivot modes mean, please see this page in our documentation: https://docs.itoosoft.com/railclone/style-editor/segments#Segments-alignmentAlignment

I hope that helps,
Paul

Slightly modified the style. Might be useful to someone. Apply the scene
