Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Projecting an image [imported as a srf into rhino] to a non planar surface?

is that possible?

This isn't really something you need grasshopper for. If you have your PictureFrame surface in Rhino, and another, curved surface above it, you can give it the same render material as the picture frame (the MatchProperties command is handy for this), create a planar texture mapping (if desired), and then use SetObjectDisplayMode to specify "rendered" if you want the texture to show up in all display modes.

If you need to do it with grasshopper you will want to use the image sampler. Reference your PictureFrame surface as a surface parameter, and then create an image sampler component referencing the same image. A setup like the one shown below is one possibility:

10x a lot man!

I'll check it out.

is it possible to use this technique for applying "pictureframe" like surface inside the UI 3d-View?

i have tried to do it (on flat cross section surface) the GH is perfect. when connecting to UI... 

i had to explode the mesh (to use it like pixel) and to match each color to each pixel. GH did not like this operation and was blocked for a while.

i wouldn't post a file since mine is crashing :)

hope for some input . cheers

matchproperties command? when I type it I cannot find it. also in the grasshopper option you show I cannot figure out what to type to get the picture frame command and cannot even begin to know what to type to get that image box... or that white box on the left

I might add that MatchProperties does not include the texture mapping - for that we have matchmapping command, so first matchproperties to get the texture, and then matchmapping to get the planar mapping. Although PictureFrame surface does not hace planar mapping by default, it has surface mapping, so you would have to change that first.
