New array building modes!

Introducing new array building modes. Start your build in Dynamic mode for rapid prototyping, and switch to Manual for more precision. Existing projects will automatically be in Manual mode.

2 of 3

Dynamic mode

Dynamic mode allows for quick array building and viewing design changes in real-time. Adjusting parameters will responsively re-fill the entire array.

3 of 3

Manual mode

Manual mode sets individual modules in place, disables group inputs like spacing and height, and enables additional module functionality like add, copy/paste, and selection (lasso) tool.

You are now switching to manual mode. Your modules will be anchored in place, and dynamic functionality (auto-adding modules on segment change, responsive spacing) will be turned off.

You are now switching back to dynamic mode. Any changes to orientation, vertice positions, module type, spacing, or height will re-lay the segment with modules. You will lose your manually placed modules by changing these inputs.
