Has anybody tried to do a "multiple pipe" defintion on GH ?
The scripted version of "multiple pipe" on Rhino pipes each line one by one and therefore can take very long...
How do you think one could include a pipe command to multiple lines in a GH definition ?
I tried applying pipes to line but rhino crashed as you can see...
I tried a different technique:
The pipe command works when i don't do all the curves at once but crashes after a certain amount of lines (image)...
Any idea as to why ?
I'd say it's most likely the amount of RAM available.
How many lines are you trying to pipe? An alternative is to mesh a triangulated or rectalinear profile along each.
BTW - if you RhinoScript the pipe command, you can turn the graphic redraw off at the start of the script and back on at the end - speeds things up A LOT: Rhino.EnableRedraw(False)
Thanks a lot Dirk,
I noticed that after 1000 lines or so, it crashes...
I m trying to pipe 3000 of them... would you say i need to do them by group of 1000lines? Could you maybe divide multiple curve selections by group of a certain amount...?
Thanks for your advice on mesh but I need a circular profile unfortunately...
