Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

I have an issue in which I'm trying to convert a mesh to a surface, but in order to get a single surface I need to use Brep Join which turns this into a open BRep. 

PROBLEM: I'm using the surface with Panelling Tools/Surface Morph but it won't accept a BRep and says failed to convert from Brep to Surface.

The whole thing needs to be done in grasshopper for uni.

Hello Rawr,

since you are joining multiple surfaces you are creating a polysurface (brep).

i dont know the final goal of this exercise, but since the initial mesh is tessellated, why cant you work on the surfaces without joining them?

cheers

Hi Rawr,

I used Rhino to convert your mesh to a Brep. It is a little harder to automate the process in GH since it involves some manual work. I basically following the steps outlined in the attachment to get this result.

Thank you Rajaa!, in the end I just gave up and submitted something else for the assignment. Will keep this for future reference though as lots of my stuff has to go through Kangaroo and then Panelling Tools or Lunchbox

I have the exact same issue... Is there no option to automate the mesh to nurb in Grasshopper or find a paneling that works with meshes? 

Best wishes,

Rudi
