Architecture Set Out New Gridlines From Spacing Spec
Coming soon
Before you run this
Spacing arrays for X and Y supplied. Origin point picked or supplied. Project naming convention configured (letters / numbers / custom).
After it runs
Two arrays of gridlines placed (X-direction = 1, 2, 3...; Y-direction = A, B, C...) per the spacing spec; labels follow the project convention; bubble visibility set per project standard.
When to use this
- Project setup at concept / stage 2 — you have the structural engineer's grid spacing and you need it placed in the model in one shot rather than drawing each line manually.
Don't use this when
Adding to an existing grid (different routine), non-orthogonal grids, or schemes where labels need to be hand-curated.
Decision flow
1. Read the X spacing array and the Y spacing array. 2. Compute X positions cumulatively from the origin; same for Y. 3. Place vertical (X-direction) gridlines and horizontal (Y-direction) gridlines in one Transaction. 4. Label per project convention (numbers in one direction, letters in the other). 5. Report grid extents, count and the origin used.
What you'll see in the chat
on start
I'll set out the gridlines from your spacing spec now.
thinking
Computing cumulative grid positions in X and Y from the origin.
on success
Done — {n_x} × {n_y} gridlines set out. Extents {extents}.
on failure
Couldn't set out the gridlines: {error}.
