Generate array at not equal distance

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi everybody,

I've been struggling to find the best way to create a gradient made of lines.

Its for a design of a facade, so i need precision in the distance between lines.

The goal is to make all lines with the same width but the distance between them enlarges.

Any idea how achieve this through dynamic blocks? LISP routine?

 

 

Thanks

The attached drawing might give you an idea of where to start

Looking great, that's pretty much what I'm trying to achieve!

Now if i want to add more lines, like hundreds of them what could be the fastest way?

Unfortunately there is no fast way. Unless someone can create a lisp which will add a move action to each line with an increment.

You could ask them to create a lisp which will ask you to select the line  and the distance parameter then it automatically adds the move action with an incremental distance you specify.

 

 

I only use LT here so cannot help you further.

I'm not sure if I understand you right. Can you post an example dwg what you expect to get (about 5 lines should be enough).

The previous response made by Hunter explains correclty what im trying to achieve.

Create a lisp routine that selects a line and displaces +1 unit to the left

Hmm. If I test Hunter's suggestion, I get this result.

Is that really what you want? For me it doesn't match with your description. 

For me a more logical interpreatation could look as shown here

But I'm not sure if this is your goal. 

If I read your descripion abov I would think you need this result.

But also here I have doubts if this is what you want

Is it to hard for you to show a image or a dwg what you have and what you achieve to get. And which values are given and which values can vary? Sorry, until now I do not understand your expectations ... 

(And I hope you don't need urgently a Dynamic Block or a LISP, but a solution for your geometric drawing problem, independesntly from the way of solution)
