If I have one cell and I want to connect let us say 100 together in series, what is the easiest possibility?
Is there any script to do it?

Thanks

Added after 3 hours 28 minutes:

an other question (but I do not want to make a new topic)...
The situation: I have a cell, I have a parameter in this cell defined as pPar("Parameter"), in the next hierarchy level i also want to use this parameter and just the third hierarchy level (let us say top) I want to give the final value to this parameter.
In the second hierarchy, I also tried to use pPar("Parameter"), but in this case I have not seen the parameter in the top :-(

You do not need an script for that... you can get it by just doing the following:

1- Create the unit cell in such a way that, if you put two of them side by side, they get connected.
2 - Make a "Copy" and, in the copy pop-up menu, put 99 in the column or row field...

You'll see that it's quite easy and you'll have your 100 cells connected in one second.

Click to expand...
Or you can make for example 10 rows in 10 columns to get better visibility.

If what I understand is right, you're trying to modify a parameter of cell that's two levels of hierarchy bellow... I'm not sure if you'll be able to do it. I never saw something like that. I never needed to do it so I never thought if possible...

yes, i tried to modify that
