Hi all, I am trying to apply geometry to a surface, but when the surface is subdivided, some areas are very dense, whilst, others are not so. Is there any way around this? Ideally I would like all…Continue

Hi, I am new to grasshopper. I am trying to make a component to populate a surface, and I have looked at several tutorials which show how to subdivide a surface and add your own geometry to it. My…Continue

Hi All, I am trying to model an adjustable roof system made up from one foldable an extendable component. I would like to add real life parameters to the component so I can model how each component…Continue

taz replied to John Cambell's discussion Equal subdivision of surface"I had a quick play. You could contour and reloft a new surface.
I rebuilt the loft curves so they all had the same number of control points.
Or you can extract a lot of points and try to reverse engineer a cleaner surface using a plug-in, for…"

Thanks for the reply, do you know the best way of doing this? Its quite a cmplex shape so the loft doesn't work..."

Hi all, I am trying to apply geometry to a surface, but when the surface is subdivided, some areas are very dense, whilst, others are not so. Is there any way around this? Ideally I would like all the subdivisions to be approximately the same shape CheersSee More
Chris Tietjen replied to John Cambell's discussion Modelling interlinked parts"This looks to me like it will involve recursion so I believe it would require a scripted component.

David Rutten replied to John Cambell's discussion Grasshopper keeps crashing"The tooltip will tell me how many objects there are in any given parameter.
You can also use the Param Viewer or a Text Panel to examine the data layout of any parameter.
The duplication is most likely due to a mismatch in data…"
John Cambell replied to John Cambell's discussion Modelling interlinked parts"yes thats exactly what they are, 2 flat folded circles mirrored on top of each other"
Chris Tietjen replied to John Cambell's discussion Modelling interlinked parts"Those shapes look like they might be circles when folded flat on the plane. Is that correct?

John Cambell replied to John Cambell's discussion Grasshopper keeps crashing"Thanks for the reply David, do you have any idea where the replication of breps may have occure? I've had a look but I can't locate anything. I made the shapes from points made from dividing the surface..."
David Rutten replied to John Cambell's discussion Grasshopper keeps crashing"Hi John,
the file as you posted requires 1.1GB of memory. At some point you'll simply run out of memory (especially on 32 bit systems) and it will crash.
Your final object creates 40,000 breps. I think this is a mistake, but…"

Hi, I am new to grasshopper. I am trying to make a component to populate a surface, and I have looked at several tutorials which show how to subdivide a surface and add your own geometry to it. My definition works when I have a low numbe rof definitions, but when I try to increase it, say to 100, the file keeps crashing. Is there anything I can do about this? I'm sure there is a more efficient way to do what I've done, I'm just not sure how! CheersSee More

thanks for the reply, I have a physical model of the kind of linkage I am after..."

Hi All, I am trying to model an adjustable roof system made up from one foldable an extendable component. I would like to add real life parameters to the component so I can model how each component would articulate and thus how the whole system would behave in real life I would like to do something similar to the image shown below.…See More
