Trim 3d l-system tree branches using a surface
17 Replies

I have created a series of 3d l system trees from a grid of points. All of the L system trees are of varying heights which relate to a roof surface. All of the branches intersect the roof surface.…Continue

Hi,I am trying to use the cluster that EXLAB have created and posted on their website in conjunction with an unrolled, panelised surface  - see attached file for my definition. When I connect the cluster into my definition, I get this: What the cluster appears to be doing is creating one tab for the whole rolled surface as…See More

"Hi Michael. Add the "{0}" into the "P" input of your flatten component. Or you can even delete the "Flatten" component, and instead of that right click on the "point" parameter and check "Flatten"."

Flatten output and disconnect all

If you right click on the 'D' output of the flatten component and 'deselect all' everything is fine and the data deselects. However, when you reconnect any data back into the 'D' output of Flatten, you no longer get any data output like so:…See More

Coffee + Grasshopper

A daily geometric problem is presented to the grasshopper 3d community. Degrees of difficulty vary by day.The idea is to sharpen skills, challenge, or a fun exercise: Useful for beginners wanting to learn, or as an alternative to your morning coffee + cross-word puzzle. Rules:Contributions can be posted by anyone. Either selected from a previously posted problem from the general discussion (please acknowledge original poster), a selection from one of the many grasshopper+ primers (please…See More

3D Voronoi Subtraction

I have created a 3d voronoi by creating a set of points in Rhino and then using the '3d Voronoi' tool that looks something like below: What I am wanting to do is remove some of the polysurfaces indicated in lime and numbered 1-4 so that I end up with the base to create a structure like this:http://www.grasshopper3d.com/photo/3d-voronoi-sculpture/prev?context=user Any help would be most appreciated. MichaelSee More

Hey Michael I was thinking on how to remove volumes from  the perimeter so I got this definition hope you enjoy it

Hey Michael, the strategy that I use to create this 3d voronoi, I must give the merits to Gabe Smedresman, long time ago he developed VB script to subdivide breps geometries, what I did is that I create random points in order to create a volume that could contain this points, (in this case a box, but the volume could be whatever you want) , then I just introduced the data to the vb script component, resulting voronoi volumes. From this point I only classified the data in order to extract the lines to create the structure. Also from this data I used a random selection to extract the volumes that should be solid. If you want the vb script component I can send it to you.
