Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Hi I need some help in arrange a Geometry on an hexagonal grid on an single surface.

Is it possible to make a box with more or less edges than 4?

Please help

Use the polygon component.

i am using polygons but i cant use them as a box because the box have 4 Edges

what do you mean when you say "use as a box"?

i want to use them as a box to morph them on an surface.

The Geometry that i have is built from an hexagon and i want to connect same geometry at the edges, so that i have an hexagonal pattern.

I can built the geometry from the hexgrid, but it would take to long.

Thats why i want to morph the geometry to an hexagonal pattern.

I want it like on the image. but not on an uneven surface.

I'm still not getting what you want to do.  Have you got a small sample of the final result you're looking for?

i get it, you want to do a box morph but with hexagons instead of boxes, right?

yes thats it. but i dont know how.

I can't think of an easy way with normal gh omponents. I don't know your level or your coding skills but you can hack on the VB code of this post from my blog and achieve this using transformation matrices.

Best,

that will be difficult... -.- with my skills.

I found a possible solution by using the lunchbox staggered quad panels.

I boxed the hexagonal brep and placed it on them with twisted boxes.

why dont you just do it with a rectangular box like a rapport in tapistry?  since the pattern repeats itself in x and y there will be one.
