ABSTRACT:
A system and method are described for spacing objects within a constraint. In one embodiment, data that defines the constraint and a set of spacing parameters that indicate how to space objects across the constraint are received. Further, a grid type from a plurality of grid types is selected. Each such grid type is associated with one or more grid attributes. A grid of the selected grid type is then mapped onto the constraint.
