iLogic: Make pattern fit within Length Value

Hi,

 

I have this conveyor, with hangers on the side, for the sliderail.

 

The pattern of the hanger, for the sliderail, should not exceed the length, Meaning, if I change the length to 2000mm the pattern adapts accordingly. Right now, they just float in the air.

 

There a two different hanger distances, depending on the load. 600 and 900mm

 

The Length Value is called "Sliderail_Length"

In the pattern dialog, set Spacing to Distance

The issue is the amount of hangers needed, depending on the length of the conveyor and hanger distance.

 

The hanger distance can either be 600 mm or 900mm

so you need to calculate the maximum of hangers, depending on the length and hangers distance,

 

count = floor(Length / hanger_distance)

(floor will round it down)

 

use the count in the pattern
