Horizontally Scaling Block?

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi,

 

I want to make a rectangular block with fifteen vertical lines, which stretches vertically and horizontally. Is there a way I can do this without fifteen separate horizontal actions applied to each vertical line?

 

Essentially I want a scalable block but with independent axes.

 

Thank you in advance,

Karl

You could make the vertical lines an appropriately spaced associative hatch.  Scale the hatch and stretch the boundary horizontally.  Stretch only the boundary vertically.

Perhaps you could share some more details about what you're going for.  It sounds like there is a simple dynamic block solution to easily achieve what you want, but I don't know what exactly your end goal is.  Maybe you want an "Array" action in the Block Editor?  You can achieve what you already have without a dynamic block by just using the Properties panel to make adjustments.
