Unit GridGeneration

GenerateGrid is used to create the grid based on TScreenObjects.

Parameters

ErrorMessage

specifies the reason why grid generation failed. Ignore ErrorMessage if GenerateGrid returns True.

SpecifyGridAngle

specifies whether SpecifiedGridAngle should be used as the grid angle or whether SpecifiedGridAngle should be ignored. Set SpecifyGridAngle to True to use SpecifiedGridAngle.

SpecifiedGridAngle

is the grid angle that will be used in generating the grid. SpecifiedGridAngle is only used when SpecifyGridAngle is True.

SmoothColumns

says whether the grid should be modified so that the ratio between the widths of adjacent columns is less than SmoothingCriterion. If SmoothColumns is True, the grid will be modified in this way.

SmoothRows

says whether the grid should be modified so that the ratio between the widths of adjacent rows is less than SmoothingCriterion. If SmoothRows is True, the grid will be modified in this way.

SmoothLayers

says whether the grid should be modified so that the ratio between the widths of adjacent layers is less than SmoothingCriterion. If SmoothLayers is True, the grid will be modified in this way.

SmoothingCriterion

is the desired ratio between the widths of adjacent columns, rows, or layers. SmoothingCriterion is ignored if SmoothColumns, SmoothRows, and SmoothLayers are all false.

Returns

GenerateGrid returns true if the grid was generated. If a grid was not created, GenerateGrid returns false and ErrorMessage gives the reason why grid generation failed.
