Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Hey everyone,

due to popular demand we've decided to release a few more versions of Grasshopper 1.0 for Rhino5. You can download the installer from the usual location.

A while ago it was agreed that once the Remote Control Panel is back we'd stop feature development for Grasshopper 1.0 and begin working on Grasshopper 2.0 instead. That moment has now arrived. There will probably still be some bugs that need looking into, but there will be no more new features.

Today's release is versioned as 0.9.0065, but you can think of it as Grasshopper 1.0, Beta 1.

New features:

  • The Remote Control panel is back. You can show it from the Grasshopper View menu. 
  • Expression components with no inputs will now output the expression as text instead of failing.

Fixes:

  • It could take a long time to show object context menus if there were many warnings/errors, this is fixed.

  • Clusters without any objects other than input and output hooks would crash when the tooltip was shown, this is fixed.

  • Plugging a cluster input directly into a cluster output would result in lockdown, this is fixed.

  • Variable Parameter addition was always shown when there were no input or output parameters, this is fixed.

  • Project Along used a one-degree angle tolerance which was too loose. This is now 0.01 degrees.

  • The Addition component would not allow the renaming of input parameters, this is fixed.

  • 3rd party GHA files with incorrect GUID notation in the assembly info would prevent saving, this is fixed.

The remote panel supports Sliders, Toggles, Buttons and Text Panels, and has labels and separators for layout and markup. You can publish sliders etc. to the Remote Panel via the context menus.

To show the Remote Panel, use the Grasshopper View menu:

Every GH file carries a single RCP layout, which is empty by default:

You can create a new layout by publishing objects to the remote panel:

Publishing objects always puts them in the bottom-most panel group:

You can switch into Edit Mode (the green pencil) to re-order items, delete them (by dragging them far away), insert new groups, rename groups, assign colours to groups and insert labels and separators:

Object deletion is not yet handled, so if a slider has been published to the remote panel and then gets deleted, the published proxy isn't automatically removed and behaves in an odd way.

Happy Christma-Hanu-Rama-Ka-Dona-Kwanzaa,

David

Project Along ,I have said this project shoud be the single a matirx-- I don't think 0.01 degrees can solve the problem.

What  sense does the remote control panel  Make?

You guys look so excited about it!

no more going through the entire definition to find a slider

no more headaches  when it becomes Spaghetti in big definition

Your definition is as only as disciplined as you. Have a read of this: http://www.grasshopper3d.com/forum/topics/organizing-gh-documents

It's also a big thing when sharing GH files with colleagues or clients. It's a way to expose the actual logic without confronting people with the full network.
