About this Block

What it does: Creates a Lattice from a specified Graph and Thickness. Common uses:
  • Converting the Graph type used in the deprecated Lattice blocks into the third generation Lattice type.
  • Converting an imported Graph type into the Lattice type.
  • The Thickness of the lattice is a Scalar Field type, which allows for a variable Thickness.
  • Open up the block’s Properties Panel to view the beam, implicit, and thick graph properties.
    • These properties are populated based on the type of Unit Cell you use. An error sign with a tooltip appears next to the property if it is empty.
Creates a Lattice from a Graph and a Thickness Scalar Field. The Graph’s existing thickness data will be overridden.
