Sorry, I have fumble-fingers typing and quick-click mousing going on tonight.
What I MEANT to say was:

There should be 15 blocks that fit EXACTLY into the view plane. You have 14.5
blocks showing from front to back. So you're about 1/2 block off.

Hoho, if at first you fail to post, then post post again!

I'm not too worried about the discrepancy, but I think it's a combination of
factors. Firstly, my blocks have straight edges whereas the template grid has
curves - my blocks shortcut a little. Secondly, because my blocks are
superellipsoids, they're crammed together more forgivingly and are slightly
larger than they need to be.

I'll have a play - a little trial and error should sort it out!
