Hey all! Long time lurker, this is my first post here~I've been using Grasshopper for a bit, and it seems that I've inadvertently stumbled onto something rather hard. Or, perhaps I'm just not looking…Continue

"I used the Rebuild command from the Edit menu on all three surfaces and that got rid of the nulls. Chris"

"Here is a work-around. I set the reTrim(T) to false, offset the surfaces then split the faces with the original edges. Then singled out the largest surfaces... crazy but it works. "

"Thanks! This looks promising. I managed to hack it together with convex hull yesterday, but this looks way cleaner!"

Surface offset component returning nulls

I'm having a strange issue, where offset is refusing to work for many surfaces. I've got a small cluster of three surfaces in this model, and when i send them to offset, only one of the three surfaces actually offsets! Everything else returns null. Any ideas why these surfaces are returning null, once passed through…See More

"Hi Nicole, I haven't totally understood your explanation, but if what you want is to encompass 2 rectangles that have the same orientation into one big rectangle, my approach would be to use the BoundingBox component, specifying a plane whose…"

"Sure~ I've got the upper and lower notch projected back onto the original surface here. Two green rectangles. I'm looking to make one rectangle out of them."

"Can you attach a screen shot of this? I'm a little confused as to what's being projected where."

"Realizing that the most important piece of help that I'm looking for might be unclear. If I have two rectangles along the same plane, how would I go about making a rectangle that includes both of them on that plane? Currently, I'm…"

At wits end trying to create notched surfaces-halp?

Hey all! Long time lurker, this is my first post here~I've been using Grasshopper for a bit, and it seems that I've inadvertently stumbled onto something rather hard. Or, perhaps I'm just not looking at things the right way. I'm making this sculpture out of many laser cut cards, all at funny angles to each other. I'd like to notch the intersections between the cards, so they fit nicely. I'd gotten things mostly together by ignoring the thickness of the material, but the cards bowed at angles as…See More
