Add more Definitions to repeat
Allow more definitions to repeat feature.
The spacing is awesome and long overdue. and the brick and flip features are amazing.
But would like to be able to define the total repeats in a unit, not just in size of the repeat area. if we use it for production we want to be able to repeat 10 wide and 5 repeats high. not having to count them separately and having some cut in half. If we repeat 35 in a horizontal row it can take time to count the amount of total pieces. Also maybe add a small total of pieces info number in the repeat panel.
Maybe if we hold done ctrl it changes the amount of repeats and alt changes the spacing, and when you don't hold down any keys it just changes the repeat area as is default now.

The new repeat feature is great, I've been wanting this for a long time. However, I think the Grid Repeat options need additional definitions.
Right now it allows you to define the space between the artwork as the only definition. It should allow us to choose relative space and absolute space.
More specifically, it should allow us to define the actual repeat size.
ie: every 6 inches, repeat the motif.
This is the standard method in most industries that frequently require pattern repeats (garment, upholstery, wall coverings etc).
