Is there a function to distribute objects equaly along a space (like in PowerPoint :) )?
Before developping it, I prefere to ask. Thanks in advance
how to evenly distribute objects of different sizes on a line
FlexSim 23.1.1
@Nicolas M25, to get them on a line is done by Edit Selected Object tool:

But to distribute them evenly is a matter of coding a custom command.
Here's an example using the ports to determine the sequence.
Object obj=Model.find("Source1");
Vec3 gap=Vec3(1,0,0); //The gap in each direction
Vec3 rot=Vec3(0,0,0);
Vec3 sizeFactors=Vec3(1,0,0); // control the direction
Vec3 loc=obj.location+obj.size*sizeFactors+gap;
while (obj.outObjects.length){
obj=obj.outObjects[1];
obj.location=loc;
obj.rotation=rot;
loc=obj.location+obj.size*sizeFactors+gap;
}
If they are items, then you can send them into a queue. A queue has a stacking option horizontal line. Then you can evaluate their location and project this data into a diferent object if you want to keep this assembly.
