Set Beam Thickness

Gives every beam of a lattice a new diameter. The beams, and any rib walls, stay where they are; only the diameter changes, so a lattice can be graded after it has been built and filtered.

Inputs

Lattice Lattice

The lattice to re-thicken. A Voronoi lattice keeps its cells and stays a Voronoi lattice.

Takes: any block that gives Lattice (14 blocks)
Thickness Number

New beam diameter in mm: a number, or a field read once per beam at its midpoint.

Takes: any block that gives Number (102 blocks)

Output

Lattice

Used by: any block that takes Lattice (98 blocks)

Properties

Values the block gives besides its output. The editor lists them under Properties, and an input can read one by reference.

Beams List of Beam

Every beam, each with its own properties.

Solid Solid

All the thickened beams merged into one Solid; beams with no thickness yet are the distance to their segments.

List List of Lattice

This lattice in a Lattice List of one.

BeamGraph Beam Graph

The beams, vertices and thicknesses, without the lattice around them.

Graph Lattice

The beams and vertices alone, with no thickness.

BoundingBox Bounding Box

The axis-aligned extent of the beams' vertices.

EdgeCount Number

How many beams the lattice has.

LineSegments List of Curve

Each beam as a line segment.

VertexCount Number

How many vertices the lattice has.
