base_plane??

Hi all,

I have a given geometry (an organic surface) and a series of points.

I want to have each of these geometries (srfs) centered in each of these points.

The points and the srf are inputs, and i want to have as many srfs as i have points.

I cant figure out how to solve it, although I can see it is very easy to do with grasshoppers nodes (ie; polygon or center box)

Any advice or tips would be great,

Many thanks

A

Hi Antonio,

you'll need two points, one in the middle of your surface [Ps] and your target point [Pt]. You can use Evaluate-Surface to find the first point. Then you need to create a Vector from [Ps] to [Pt] with the Vector 2Pt component. This then gives you a translation vector which can be used to move the surfaces until they're on top of the points with the Move component.
