Duplicate patterns with spacing control

Scripting Support¶

Extend functionality with custom scripts:

// Example: Create a grid of circles
for (let i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
    for (let j = 0; j < 5; j++) {
        let circle = new Circle(i * 50, j * 50, 20);
        circle.fill = '#3498db';
        document.add(circle);
    }
}
