Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Like others have done here, I figured it was time for me to post my grasshopper wishlist. Many of the first things I post here will have been posted in various places or in messages to David, but this way everything is consolidated and people can share their thoughts.


1. Cluster rollover tips
Id like to be able to create rollover help text for each cluster input. This could be a right click thing once the cluster is created or something specified before creating the cluster (a string input for the cluster input arrows?)

2. Disconnect all outgoing
I'd like to be able to right click on an output of any component and disconnect all wires coming out of it.

3. Disconnect all selected
It would be cool if you could disconnect all incoming or outgoing wires from all currently selected components (instead of just one at a time).

4. List item dynamic slider
There has been a lot of discussion about dynamic range sliders and the issues that they would cause. Id like one specifically for list item selection. This would be an integer slider that would have a range of 0 to the list length-1. If the range remaps and the previous value is no longer available, I think it's best to have the current value stay as close to the previous value as possible.

5. Cluster slider/toggle inputs
I think it could be valuable to cluster a series of variable inputs (like sliders or toggles) to make a sort of options cluster. In this case you could just have a list of sliders and toggles each connected directly to a cluster output arrow, select all and create your cluster. This would be great with the value list component as well.

6. Have a component that could output the x and y location of actual components on the canvas relative to the top left corner... Not sure exactly what you could do with this but I think someone could do something interesting with it.

7. 3d MD slider. I see the option is greyed out and don't see a way to activate it... Still under development? Seems like it could be just like the color picker. Would be cool.

That's all I can think of right now. I'm sure there will be more to come in the future.
Feel free to comment.

Just thought, if we`ll have (hopefully) knobs, can be there a "trackball" as a next stage?
