Rows

In a rows collection, you can find a numbered list of the placed rows of arrays. In the row properties, you can find the distance to the next row and the length of the current row, as displayed below.

Rows help you review the row-based result of an array placement in Helios 3D. Each row represents a placed sequence of arrays in the drawing and can be used to check whether the layout has been created with the expected row order, row length, and spacing to the next row.

Use the row properties to inspect the geometric placement result after arrays have been placed. The displayed row length can help you verify the extent of a row in the layout, while the distance to the next row supports a quick check of the spacing between neighbouring rows. This information is especially useful when reviewing row distances, layout density, shading-related spacing, or unexpected gaps between placed arrays.

Use the Rows section after an array placement has been generated or modified. It is intended for checking the placed rows, not for defining the array type itself. If the placement result does not match the expected layout, first review the row properties and then check the related placement settings, fields, areas, exclusion zones, adjustment lines, split lines, and array definitions.

Typical checks include verifying whether all expected rows are listed, whether the row numbering is plausible, whether the distance to the next row is consistent with the intended design, and whether the row length corresponds to the available placement area. If values are missing or appear unexpected, the placement result should be reviewed together with the underlying array placement configuration.

Notes

The values shown in the row properties describe the current placement result in the drawing. If arrays are moved, regenerated, deleted, or affected by changed placement areas, the displayed row information may need to be checked again. The exact update behaviour should be reviewed in the current Helios 3D version.

Troubleshooting

If no rows are displayed, check whether arrays have already been placed in the drawing and whether the placement result is available. If the row distance or row length seems incorrect, verify the placement settings, the selected array definition, the field boundaries, exclusion zones, and any adjustment or split lines that may influence the placement result. If rows are visible but the values do not match the expected layout, regenerate or review the placement according to the project workflow.
