Most efficient way to make a grid
Hello, I'm looking for the best way to make a grid without many features and program slow downs, such as this one:
The file went up 27MB by having a single hex pocket, linearly duplicated (LinearPattern) two times (X and Y axes) after a single mirror to offset the hex just a bit to the side.
The Multitrasform alone was enough to considerably slow down FC to the point I sometimes have to force quit it.
Any idea how to make this? Thank you all!

Thanks! What's the "Mur"? I've never seen that icon in my workflow.
Alternatively, I've found this video by MangoJelly Solutions for FreeCAD which works fairly well.

Re: Most efficient way to make a grid
is there a ban on using a French version of Fc, or is it just Wokisme
Re: Most efficient way to make a grid
yes it is normal and it's my bad, I didn't know.
see viewtopic.php?t=78640
seems there are some misfunctions

I've used that method but my body still takes tens of seconds to recompute. 29MB with 0 compression level. I can't attach my file here since it's too large.

Re: Most efficient way to make a grid
There is a macro called Honeycomb you might find useful, but I don't know if it will be any faster or result in smaller file sizes. You can install it with the addon manager in the tools menu.
