I’m stuck on one aspect of my script regarding layout. I’m slicing an object and then doing a make2d to flatten all of my curves to z=0. I then want to move each individual layer slice to a different position but when I do using rectangular array it moves all the layers the same amount. I need help understanding a solutions for this. Thanks!

Would you mind sharing the .gh file?
Thanks Seghier. One more question
what would be the best way to incrementally number each slice for etching with a laser cutter?
i don’t have any idea about laser cutter, i believe many people can help you here
You could use something like that, I used a series component to generate numbers, then concatenate

I used OpenNext text component, there is also a good component in Bowerbird that has text alignement
For laser cutting you will have to bake cutting in one color and etching in another color.
I use SVG export to lasercut or dxf export with Elefront plugin
