Okay let's zoom in on the first example on the left. This is a two dimensional grid of points organized into rows and columns of points, and since we are operating on a panel basis or at least within the individual rectangles, we can use some of our four sided tools to help us get most of the way. So we'll use Point Grid again, again from Ampersand. This will take the rows and columns of points and reorganize them into sets of four points that describe each panel.
