Parameters

width (mm)
Width of the rectangle along X. Accepts a number or math expression.
height (mm)
Height of the rectangle along Y. Accepts a number or math expression.

How it works

Rectangle produces a closed 2D path with four corners, centered at (0, 0). Combine it with a Z strategy block (Spiral Up or Stack Layers) to build a 3D shape. Both inputs accept math expressions, so you can vary size with height (e.g. via normZ or Sin).
