HiI am having trouble with the simple tashk of exporting my mesh to ecotect... It looks like all the mesh is loading(in ecotect)... but then only ends up with one panel...The mesh was previously a…Continue

"Loft options-> align sections panel is not -01 but .01 Height of cones is not relative: larger surface -> larger height"

"I have managed to solve my previous problem. However the surface still remains flat. I assumed that at the end of the script the length of the cones would vary with the curvature of the surface... or this changed manually? Thanks"

Curvature cones

Hey I am following the tutorial creating curvature cones:http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6tDcPVtAWP8/T5g0nkZ1oVI/AAAAAAAAANc/zCaONm329Ls/s1600/curvature+cones.jpgHowever I cannot get the cones to loft.. the runtime error is 'I don't know'... If anyone should shed some light of this would be really helpful. RegardsSee More

"Hi Megan, I am on Kangaroo right now. I think what you need is to add some "slack" to your rest length. You are probably using 0 right now as your value? If you use a bit more it will release the mesh area a bit more (0 would mean minimum…"

tensile membrane facade

Hey guysI designing a structural tensile membrane skin (see image).I am trying to digitise this using mesh relaxation-Kangaroo, however even by altering the stiffness of the mesh I cannot get the mesh to be tensile and act as it does in the model. Could someone give me some help, perhaps I need to try geometry gym.. Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated See More
