"Hi David, Thank you so much for helping! I still try to figure out how to only have five items per branch (not 3x5) so it would match the input structure. Or in this case one item per branch... Regards"

Replicate source Path

Hi, I have 3 planes on their own branches "x".I would like to duplicate each planes five times (so 3 branches of 5 items) but I always end up with a data structure of the 5 branches of 3 items...Dim myTree As New DataTree (Of plane) Dim i As Int32For i = 0 To 4 Dim path As New GH_Path(i) myTree.Add(x, path) Next A = myTreeAny help would be appreciatedRegardsSee More

"I have a setup that is working pretty good using Mesh/curve intersect. I do the intersect on a positive and a negative offset and I compare to make sure I don't cull the faces that are exposed but are sitting on a corner of the mesh. "

"Hi Andrew, sound really good! You think it would still work when the intersecting object is a complex hi-rez mesh? Thanks Francois"

"Nice, thank you Danny! I did try your technique, it works nice. Depending on the shooting point placement, some of the rays will hit the mesh at a great angle creating a larger perimeter even when the surface is expose... My goal is to create a…"

"Not sure if this is any faster, but you could take the meshface centers (with the face normals component) and test for the BRep closest point and cull by distance."

Danny Boyes replied to Francois's discussion Mesh projection culling

"I would cull based on the Perimeter Length of a Face. The smallest Face Perimeter would be the "Camera Plane" and the largest would be the stretched faces so anything in between would be the co-Planar. (In theory) "

Mesh projection culling

Hi, I'm wandering what would be a good and fast approach to cull the stretched mesh face resulting from a planar mesh projected on a 3d object and only leave the face that are coplanar to the intersecting mesh?I've had good result by pushing the new mesh further with a Wb offset and then shooting…See More
