About type System.Object

I divided a surface into a lot of sub surfaces. then I used "Sbox" to generate surface boxes.

And I want to put these surface boxes into different lists by the area.

But after I connected output 'B' of "Sbox" to "C#", only type system.object doesn't report any error.

List<System.Object> B

Now the question is how can I used the Rhino class to get the area value of B[i]?

Is the type hint I chose right?

Can anyone help to answer this please?

Twisted Boxes are defined inside the Transform.gha library and they are not part of the Grasshopper SDK. Therefore you cannot use them from within your script, as your script does not reference Transform.gha.

The data casting is clearly broken in 0.7 script parameters, so I'll need to fox that. But unless you want to call functions on the GH_TwistedBox through Reflection, you're stuck converting it to a Brep...



foreach (System.Object obj in B)

{

  Reflect(obj);



 Grasshopper.Kernel.Types.IGH_Goo box = (Grasshopper.Kernel.Types.IGH_Goo) obj;



 Rhino.Geometry.Brep brep = null;

 box.CastTo(out brep);



 doc.Objects.AddBrep(brep);

}
