About this Block
What it does: Allows you to select a Unit Cell from a library of graph-based Unit Cells. This block is a 1 Parameter Unit Cell, requiring only one parameter to define it. The one parameter is the Thickness of the beam or face. Common uses:- Used with a Cell Map to create a Periodic Lattice.
- The orientation changes the layout of the Unit Cell, which can affect the structure based on its usage.
- A Unit Cell Preview window appears when the block is visible. It allows you to change between the Graph or Implicit view, preview the Thickness, and toggle on or off the Bounding Box and the UVW guides.
