Block Panel

The Block panel appears in the MaStro sidebar tab when the active object is a Block object. Like the Mass panel, its content changes depending on the current mode and selection mode.

Object Mode

Block
Assigns the block object to one of the project-level blocks.

Edit Mode

In Edit Mode the available controls depend on which element type is currently selected.

Edge Select Mode

Side Rotation
A rotation angle (in degrees) applied to the building volume perpendicular to the edge direction. This lets you adjust the angle of the building façade relative to the street line.

Face Select Mode

When faces are selected (available after the Block modifier generates geometry), the following controls are active:

N° of Storeys
Total number of floors for the selected edges/faces.

Typology
Assigns a typology to the selected elements.

Use breakdown
Read-only list of uses stacked on the active element, from bottom to top.

Depth
The distance from the façade edge to the back of the building volume, in metres. Controls how deep the building extends behind the street line.

Flip Normal
Inverts the direction the building volume is extruded from the edge. Toggle this if the building appears on the wrong side of the street line.

Override Sub-panel

The Override sub-panel (collapsed by default) provides the same Top Floors and Undercroft controls as the Mass panel. See Mass Panel — Override for details.
