"usually baking components incorporate a boolean input, so that the component only bakes when the value is true. If your boolean input is called bake: if bake Then Dim lay_index As Int32 = doc.Layers.Find(lay, True)If (lay_index < 0) Thenlay_index…"

Custom Component - Bake to new layer

Hi all,I'm wondering if there is a way to bake items to a specific layers, created within a custom component. I have used the following code, but the problem here is that it bakes to the new layer on the initial solution computation. Then it repeatedly bakes to the default layer at each consecutive computation. Thus, I'm left with multiple copies of the initial geometry(one geometry on the new layer and N geometries on the default layer).What I would like to do is add N layers, then bake N…See More

"Yes it is a tiered seating algorithm built into a GH component. I have created the component, and am currently working out the bugs. I can not publicize it as of yet, as I am still perfecting the details. I will put it out once complete."

"Hi Pierre, I can not help you unfortunately. But I got interested in that component you are using. Is that a stadium generator component?Where did you get it? Thank you."

David Rutten replied to Pierre Roberson's discussion Input information from windows form into custom component

"This is what I'd do. The logic here is: Get a pointer to the input parameter we're dealing with. (not shown above) If the input parameter already has incoming wires, don't show the window, but return immediately. Harvest the current…"
