Steps

  • Create a Rectangular Grid node.
  • Connect the center of the first grid element to the first port.
  • Connect the rectangle width to the second port.
  • Connect the rectangle length to the third port.
  • Connect the number of grid elements in the OX direction to the fourth port.
  • Connect the number of grid elements in the OY direction to the fifth port.
  • Connect the spacing between grid items to the sixth port.

After creating a node, connect the center of the first grid element to the first port. To the second port, you need to connect the rectangle width, and the third port rectangle length. To the fourth and fifth ports, connect the number of grid elements, respectively, in the direction of OX and OY. To the sixth port, connect the distance between grid elements. On the output ports, you will get the result grid and rectangle centers.
