Hi Punkhead,
Reading back through the thread, it looks like you were after a geodesic grid on a freeform structure, rather than a geodesic dome. Anyway, I added the geodesic dome function Grasshopper-StructDrawRhino as an example file to my blog, h…
Hi Punkhead,
If it's of interest to you (or others), I can integrate my plug-in command into a single c# grasshopper component if you're happy to install my plug-in. Will give you options for all sors of Geodesic domes as shown in this you-tube cli…
I have a couple of ideas for both:
As for the plane you could use the "plane components" object and select the perpendicular vector.
I usually do one of the following to things to find a surface normal.
1. Use the "area" component to find the cen…
hi
i've been trying to built a geodesic dome, i know all the theory, but i'm new to grasshopper.
so i'm trying to open this file you shared, but i can't open it. (should be the version i'm running) could you maybe post some screenshots of the defini…
Not sure if I'm adding much to this discussion as it seems that those with questions have come up with solutions. I missed this thread earlier this year, with regards to adding geodesic domes to Rhino, it's a command available in my Structural Drawi…
Hi Guys,
Would you know any Free-Form geodesic structures ?
I have been looking at the "shortpath" command on rhino and tried what you see on the image but do you know any built example ?
Hey Thomas,
The Replace Branches component will definitely do what you're after with some proper pre-processing, but I've been in search of a cleaner way to do it...
It seems the new path mapper won't help.

In the screenshot you posted, there are 5 zeroes behind the index in each of your paths. My problem is that i have several sets of paths i want to merge using the index as the number on which to merge the paths.
Structure one (paths = 2)
{1;0;0;0;0…
I am not manually specifying the length of each path, I use list length for that. I don't know of a way you can do the same without using list length if that's what you asked.
It would still work if they didn't have the same number of 0s.
And I'm not sure if there is a way to do it without using 'list length'.. but what's the problem with using it?
I mean several paths yes, but without having to specify each path length... just saying that all paths with * number of zeroes infront of the index and * number of zeroes after the path.
