Alignify & Grid Calculation Tool
Win64, EnglishGeneral Usage Instructions
Align Objects:
- Select the object(s) you want to align.
- Choose a reference object.
- Specify the alignment point (e.g., left, center, top).
- The tool will instantly reposition the selected objects based on your input.
Copy Array:
- Select the object to duplicate.
- Enter the desired spacing and number of copies.
- The tool will generate evenly spaced duplicates in seconds.
Grid Calculation for Structured Builds:
- Run DV_GRIDCAL, select two parallel reference lines (or block edges/Xlines) for the primary direction.
- In the dialog, pick modes (axis-only or with blocks), set parameters like divisions, thicknesses, offsets, modules, or ratios, and toggle dimensions/alternates—preview transients help refine choices.
- Confirm to draw; use jigs for origin placement and rotation if in block mode—envision a real-time grid forming with blocks inserted accurately.
- For cross-grids (in specific modes), opt to repeat for perpendicular pairs, adding a full orthogonal layout.
- Post-creation, add dimensions automatically or delete temp lines via prompts—seamlessly integrates into design iterations for consistency.
