NGen - CAESAR II - Help

NGen or Commands > NGen duplicates patterns of nodes and places the following card in the Card Stack pane:

The first and last node in the base node pattern must exist before you can use NGen. Other nodes not previously defined in the base node pattern are evenly spaced by a defined increment between the first and last node. Subsequent nodal patterns start from the base pattern. DX, DY, and DZ offsets define nodes duplicated from the base pattern of nodes.
