Fills a Solid with a lattice: the cell, picked here or wired, is tiled over a box, cylinder or sphere grid or a wired cell grid, cells that cannot touch the Solid are skipped, and with Trim on the lattice is cut flush at its surface. The cell is sized by its thickness or by the share of each cell that is material. Gives the same result as Cell Grid in Solid, Trim Cell Grid, Tile Cells and Trim Beams wired in a row.
The Solid (or field) to fill with the lattice.
The cell to fill with: a beam or wall cell from the library, a minimal surface, or Wired, the cell wired into Cell (a Custom Cell).
The cell to fill the Solid with, when Cell type is Wired: a Custom Cell.
A wall around the surface, a wall moved off it, or the space on one side of it.
How the cells are laid out: a rectangular grid, rings around an axis, shells around a centre, or Wired, the cell grid wired into Cell grid.
How a box grid's cells are sized: Absolute, by Cell size; or Count, by how many cells span the volume's bounding box along each axis.
Cell edge lengths along the grid's x, y and z axes, in mm. All three must be positive.
How many cells along the grid's x, y and z axes: three whole numbers. The cells span the volume's bounding box, each cell its share of it.
The cell grid that places the cells, when Grid is Wired: it carries their size and placement.
Radial thickness of each ring of cells, in mm.
Height of each ring of cells along the axis, in mm.
How many cells make one full turn around the axis.
How many rings of cells from pole to pole.
How many cells make one full turn around the polar axis.
Where the grid is laid out. When unset: a box grid starts at the volume's bounding-box min corner with world axes; a cylinder grid sits on the volume's principal axes about its centre of mass, Z along the axis of the smallest moment (axes whose moments lie within 5 % of each other follow the world axes); a sphere grid is centred on the volume. A box grid sized by Count spans the volume's bounding box in this frame.
Cut the lattice off at the volume's surface so it ends flush there. The cut tolerance is 0.1% of the mean side length of the volume's bounding box. On by default.
What sizes the cell: its Thickness, or the share of each cell that is material (Volume fraction, on a box grid).
The cell's beam or wall thickness in mm: a number, or a field to grade it. Unset: 1 mm. Read by cells that take a Thickness.
The share of each cell that is material, 0 to 1: a number, or a field to grade it. It sets the thickness (a One Side cell's offset) that fills this share of the cell, read from the cell itself. On a box grid only.
How far a minimal surface is moved, in mm: a number, or a field. Unset: 0. Read by cells that take an Offset.
Hold the wall closer to the requested thickness: the distance from the surface is read from the field's gradient and its bend along it, instead of the quick estimate. Measured against the true distance for walls up to 40 % of the cell, the wall's share of the cell is off by at most 0.7 percentage points on a Gyroid, 2.4 on Schwarz P, 3.8 on Neovius, 4.2 on Schwarz D, 6.2 on Lidinoid and 6.5 on Split P. Costs eight extra field evaluations per point, so lattices using this cell build slower. Off by default.
Which of the cell's own u, v, w axes lands on x, y and z. UVW keeps the cell as authored.
Values the block gives besides its output. The editor lists them under Properties, and an input can read one by reference.
Every beam, each with its own properties.
All the thickened beams merged into one Solid; beams with no thickness yet are the distance to their segments.
This lattice in a Lattice List of one.
The beams, vertices and thicknesses, without the lattice around them.
The beams and vertices alone, with no thickness.
The axis-aligned extent of the beams' vertices.
How many beams the lattice has.
Each beam as a line segment.
How many vertices the lattice has.
For each vertex, the number of beams that end there.
The position of every vertex.
