Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Is there a way to force DIVA output to assign one color per one surface subdivision/mesh panel? I am not a big fan of the kind of bleeding output that comes from DIVA by default.

Thank you,

Hi Konrad,
Their is really no default visualization, it is open to the user to create analysis nodes and visualize their results using any number of methods or in conjunction with other plugins. If you are using the vertices of a mesh to create analysis nodes and false-coloring the mesh based on those results, then the default mesh creation in grasshopper will blend the mesh face color based on the colors (data) for the vertices. An alternative approach would be to use the centroid and normal of each mesh face as the analysis node and preview the mesh face geometry with the result. We have also added a "grid" component to the latest release (2.007) which basically does this by breaking down a mesh into a list of single face meshes with their respective nodes and normals to achieve the same thing. I am partial to the visualization that the 'mesh colours' component produces (need to graft the mesh list and data to force a single color rather than a repeating pattern). Images of both examples attached. Hope that helps.

Thank you for your response Jeff. Examples that you posted are clear enough and I was able to achieve those results.

I was really asking about the analysis results that get saved as TIF/BMP files in the DIVA folder location. It's when I change the Simulation Type to Visualization. Those tend to be bleeding colors and they don't follow the same rule of one color per panel that i am getting in the preview window. Is there are way to control that? I am looking to save my analysis results as TIFs but possibly maintain that appearance.

Thank you,
