Hey thanks Damien! That is a very detailed explanation.. I'm guessing you've also had to deal with this issue for Rhino Hair?
I did try using the comparing angles to a static vector, but I wasn't doing it right. With planar curves, I've noticed tha…
The key to getting this to work lies with cross products, which will allow you to generate the perpendicular vectors that you need.
1) Determine a static vector that you will be using. Personally I like using something like the Z vector, but techni…
I certainly think trees allow a far greater extent of flexibility compared to arrays, but I also agree that data/item access in legacy arrays was a wee-bit simpler, though nothing I can't deal with.
To answer the original question of this thread, d…
Hi All,
I'm trying to figure out how does the PerpFrame component work.. It essentially creates planes along the curve that do not twist (If you simply create a plane using the curve tangent, it flips over several times..). I have emptied my bag of…
That explains the icon too.. Now there's something to entertain those with kids on the side while they do their fancy wire connecting stuff. Invaluable.
Hi Suryansh,
you could write a small plug-in (or script) that copies all gha's from a location on the network to a local user folder when Rhino starts. Or it might be a command that does that when the user chooses to. Then just use the normal Grass…
In the section the RunScript, where it says 'additional custom code', type in:
private static int counter
Now this counter would not expire until this component is deleted off the canvas, or in some cases, even until Rhino is not closed. So use ca…
I noticed that too.. it's quite neat actually, though I have a feeling WB triggers a service somewhere that does this.
But creating an installer is something I'm a bit wary of, due to lack of prior knowledge of how to do that, handling registries,…
If I am not mistaken, Weaverbird uses a small webserver to communicate available updates. The other day I was working with it and I got a window telling me a new version was available. I clicked the button and it took me to the update. Sure, I still…
I not a network administrator so I'm not an expert. But I know enough to be dangerous. Group Policy allows you to push msi files automatically onto work stations at login. So updates can automatically happen then.
I'm all ears about ways to enable…
But making an installer would still require the user to manually install the update, wouldn't it?
It's unreasonably difficult considering how easy it is to make a Rhino toolbar that loads RVBs off a network, or for that matter Maya to load MELs fro…
From past experience, Microsoft doesn't look favourably on loading libraries from network drives. I never worked out how to let it through the security protecting me.
I'd look at group policy or similar to bulk update rhino, grasshopper, plug-ins e…
I've tried to setup GH to load GHA assemblies from network locations (even with the memory load option checked), but somehow it's always failed on me. I am now beginning to wonder if this is possible at all.
In terms of practical use, and why I am t…
Hi
I am interested in your project The lightbox pavilion. Because i am working on a school project with some of the same principles in physical model. I have seen your youtube movie and been trying to build it in grasshoppers but i am a grass rookie and haven't been able to. How did you make it?
