Container Pattern
A pattern defines a collection of positions. For example, a box with predefined
locations for certain objects. You can change the order, delete, or rearrange the
selected layers using the available options. You can adjust the vertical position of
each layer by modifying the Offset (mm). You can also manage the sorting method.
The Sorting Method section defines the order in which the items in the container
pattern shall be handled by the robots.

None options: The items in the layer shall be accessed in the same order
as they are defined in the layout for each layer, but if the next item cannot
be reached the next one after that is used.
X Direction options: The items shall be accessed in the X direction for
each layer, that is, in the order they travel along a conveyor.
Strict options: The items shall be used in the same order as they are
defined in the layout for each layer. If a robot cannot access the next item
position in a layer, that robot does not use any more item positions in the
container pattern.
