Examples

Inserting assets based on their (physical) size

The goal is to insert assets from a pool, depending on their (physical) size. The pool of assets is seen in the following image. Colors are (only) used to visually emphasize the size ratio.

Lot -->
    s('0.9,'0.9,'0.9)
    center(xz)
    RecursiveSplit

RecursiveSplit -->
    case scope.sx >= 1.5 && scope.sz >= 1.5:
        split(x) { ~scope.sx/3 : split(z) { ~scope.sz/3 : RecursiveSplit }* }*
    else: innerRectangle(scope) { shape : Insert }

Insert -->
    alignScopeToAxes(y)
    i(assetBestSize("/myProject/assets/cube_*.obj", "xz"))

Note that small parts get blue assets while large parts get red assets.
