"You're right, I wasn't aware of the curve containment component, thanks. A small question: why does it not work if I put the expression if(r=1,true,false) in the output R of the containment component? (it normally outputs 0=coincident,…"

"Using circles and a curve region inside/outside test will be faster than testing inclusion for a surface. The fastest approach in this case would be to measure distance to the center point and removing all points that are further away than the…"

"Or do it yourself: (generate enough -> pick out the useful ones) "

"is there a chance to input a circle into the Populate2D to define it's region? the R parameter clearly asks for a rectangle... i hope you'll make that possible in a future built!"

"Populate2D is rather new (added in 0.8.0060), maybe that's why you missed it? -- David Rutten david@mcneel.com Poprad, Slovakia"

"oh crap, if i had only known of Populate2D earlier... i thought there is no other Random engine. luckily, my surface is as simple as it gets, just a planar rectangle, so that works excellent!thanks for your killer support!!!"

"If the parameterization of the surface is linear (I believe the $10 word for this is "arc-length-parameterization", meaning that the parameters increase in equal measure to the physical dimensions) then you just need to create a 2D-Domain…"

"WORKS!!! :-)so i assume "internalize data" means grasshopper notes the exact position and radius of the circle? so glad i got it now! amazing support, thank you!"

"what i haven't completely understood yet is: What is "Seed"? it occurs with so many of the tools.in this particular case, what do the panels "1" and "2" do for the Random function?"

"It depends how you linked your 4 series of circles in Rhino to the 4 Curve components in Grasshopper. My definition has the circles internalized and I picked them in the "right" order, just input your circles differently (picking them one…"

"i'll stick to my description as "challenging"!took me a while but now i get what's going on!when i rebuild it, there's some different behaviour though! using your definition, i can put the ShufflingStrength down to zero and…"

"After Entwine, we have 4 different branches, Jitter needs a different seed for each branch, or they will be shuffled the same way. If graft is not used, Jitter will shuffle each branch with each seed (4x4), if used it will match each branch of…"

"hey come on... for me this was mission impossible!!! :-) THANK YOU SO MUCH! i had to get the newest gh version before i could rebuild it step by step, i tried to comprehend what's going on in that solution of yours. it obviously works, but i…"

"Wouldnt you have something more challenging ? Ok, you know how to use psychology."
