Detailed Description
Make a StructHexVolField that fits the source field. The value type of the LatVolField is the same as that of the input field. If there is no input field specified, then create a unit volume of doubles. The size parameters refer to the number of nodes in the volume, not the number of cells. Thus a 2x2x2 node lattice will only contain one cell.
The Pad Percentage parameter is an optional parameter that describes how much larger than the input field the resulting lattice volume should be. For example, a value of 100 would make the lattice volume be three times as far across and contain twenty seven times the volume of a lattice with the default 0 padding. A value of 50 would cause the lattice to be twice as far across (50% bigger on each side).
No interpolation is done onto the new field. It is recommended that the MODULE REFERENCE module be used if those values are needed.
The default appearance of this field is not much different than that produced by the MODULE REFERENCE. However the points can be moved independently of each other such that primitive modeling can be done in conjunction with the MODULE REFERENCE module. See the CreateStructHex.net sample network for an example.
