Randomly change blocks

Command: BLKRANDOM

Description

With this command many uniform 2D and 3D blocks can be changed with a random factor.

Application

  1. After the command has been called, a dialog opens in which blocks can be selected from the drawing with various options.



  2. First be with the function [Select objects] the desired blocks selected. The selection can then be refined with the filter functions on the left (eg only all blocks that are on layer 0_Blocks). The number of blocks that have been selected is indicated.
  3. In the area tolerances Percentage changes can be entered for size, rotation and position, which result in a relative change to the original value.
  4. After confirmation with [OK] the dialog closes and the settings are applied to the blocks.

Functionality

The associated base point is used as a reference point for each individual block.

This function is very practical when used with 3D plants from the plant library of DATAflor. Here a forest planting can be simulated with just one tree symbol, this saves memory space and optimizes the computer speed.
