How to fill it

Fill the inputs. The tool shows the outputs.

On the tool screen, Calc is the working sheet. Presets stores values you reuse. Reference is the formula, assumptions, and provenance below.

Formula

spaces = ceil(L / S); count = spaces + 1; actual = L / spaces

Inputs

Name	Unit
Wall length	`in`
Target spacing	`in`
Opening width (optional) (optional)	`in`

Outputs

Name	Unit
Layout positions (hero result)	`1`
Spaces	`1`
Actual spacing	`in`
Usable length	`in`

Diagnose

This tool does not attach diagnose observations.

Provenance

When L is an exact multiple of S, actual spacing equals the target. Jack/king/cripple studs are not inferred.
