The RoundedRectangle is useful Shape that can be used in plan or in section. It is controlled by width and height handles, as is a Rectangle Shape, but it also has a rounded corner radius handle. A similar result can be achieved by setting the roundness of a Rectangle, but with the segs parameter of the RoundedRectangle, you have more control of the segmentation of the corner curves.
BastionMerger is a 3D Library item that let’s you get started with a maze-like level quickly. Once you select the BastionMerger, you will see its Plan Shape with point Handles at each control point. Clicking and dragging this handles allows you to easily manipulate the parapet walkways and the bastion walls in realtime with Shape merging magic taking care of intersections and openings in the bastion walls.
Moving the purple point Handles moves the control vertices of the Plan Shape, while clicking and and dragging a blue point Handle adds a new vertex to the Plan Shape.
Using the PlanRepeater2D node, it places rectangles representing the bastions at each vertex of a Plan shape.
In this tutorial, we will use the geometry of a piston and crankshaft assembly to get to learn how to set up Relations between parametric objects in Archimatix.
