Hi David, Thanks for the reply. This topic was more a point of interest. I like using gh for the visual feedback with the model where i can visually make object selections, but then want to use some of my .rvb scripts on those selections. thanks

gh to rhinocript communication

Is there a way To have grasshopper information directly accessible To rhinoscript? other than writing to a text file from grasshopper and then reading that text file in rhinoscript?For example: i'm sending (GUID)object identifiers from grasshopper to a text file and then reading that text file in rhinoscript. I'm wondering if there's a more direct method, maybe firefly but i'm not very familiar with it yet.thanks for any suggestions!See More

Yes, you'll just need to do it through a scripting component. The following line should do it in a standard scripting component. Note this takes the camera position from the active viewport. A = app.ActiveView.ActiveViewport.Target

camera position

is it possible to connect the current camera view's coordinates to a component in grasshopper? i'd like to dynamically grab the distance of the current view to an object(s).in rhinoscript it would be done using 'rhino.viewCamera' which would return a coordinate, from which i could obtain the distance to an object. i just can't figure out the equivalent in grasshopper.. thanks for any tips!See More
