| May 2, 2018 at 23:04 | comment | added | joiedevivre | Since the boxes appear to be the same distance apart, you could also be specific about the distance but use simple words: The boxes are lined up a quarter-inch apart in the Z-direction. I'm not clear on how the directionality comes into play here, though. Can I not start looking at the boxes on either the left or the right? Without understanding the Z-direction, I'd say this is a good description: The boxes are lined up horizontally, one-quarter-inch apart. | |
