<p>If you want to save yourself the process of scripting all this, you can download and use my GSA connector plugin. Installation instructions are here:</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Install StructDrawRhino in addition to GSA connector. I have my own bake components that send the data to GSA (best to have the application started with opening dialog closed else it starts as a background process). You can control node and element numbering with a lowest acceptable if you need to do so.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You can also automatically solve a model and extract results back to GH. Examples are found at <a href="http://geometrygym.blogspot.com" target="_blank">http://geometrygym.blogspot.com</a> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm happy to help further as needed,</p>

<p>Chances are you WILL need scripting, but nevertheless you can try and do it only using existing GH components.</p>

<p>First of all, thank you for your quick responses!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Judging from some responses I'm not exactly sure whether I explain what I mean correctly. I'm just not sure how I should explain, but perhaps what i mean will be made clear from the GH file I am working on (see attached file). The relevant stuff to this discussion is on the bottom right.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>I may not be possible in GH, but what i really want to do is assigning a name or number to a line (this is what I mean by 'line topology'. Actually, I would like to do this for points too :)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I started to wonder this afternoon if this is really the best way to import data from GH to GSA. Perhaps I should look for another solution altogether.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One such solution may to to bake the design in Rhino and exporting it to GSA as a .dwg (autocad) file. Unfortunately, I want to add data such as loads too. this data is also generated in Grasshopper.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'll be sure to check out <a rel="nofollow" href="http://ssi.wikidot.com/downloads" target="_blank">Smart Structural Interpreter</a>. I'll post my findings when I have them here.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Maybe I should get into scripting as well? In your opinion, could doing that provide a solution to this problem?</p>

<p>Talk to Jon from Geomgym, I am pretty sure he has an integrated solver for OASYS.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also depending on the solver you can just bake them as a DXF, I know Space Gass doesn't mind those.</p>

<p>Hi Michael,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I haven't tried it out myself yet, but I think you can use <a href="http://ssi.wikidot.com/downloads" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Smart Structural Interpreter</a> of <a href="http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/geometrygym" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Geometry Gym</a> to exchange data between Rhino/Grasshopper and GSA.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good luck with your thesis!</p>

<p> </p>
<p>can you send a sample of the format of the file that you want to write?</p>

<p>I might have some suggestions, then.</p>

<p>Hi Michael,</p>
<p>maybe these can help you:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>1. <em>"Is it possible to display the line topology, i.e. 'line form pt1 to pt2' instead of displaying line length?"</em></p>
<p>You can use the [End Points] component (Curve > Analysis) to access pt1 and pt2.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>2. <em>"I know a <point> component contains values for a location {x,y,z}. But can I display some sort of <point>numbering? Does GH assign a 'point number' to identify different points at all?…</em></p>
<p>Hi Michael,</p>

<p>2. <em>"I know a <point> component contains values for a location {x,y,z}. But can I display some sort of <point>numbering? Does GH assign a 'point number' to identify different points at all? Or is there some way to manually do this?"</em></p>
<p>[Point] parameter component stores points in a list, so this means that you can access each item individually by invoking its index (Sets > List > List Item), so you have your numbering problem solved.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>3. <em>"Can I set the panel to display a comma instead of a point to indicate the decimal mark?"</em></p>
<p>I suppose you can only solve this one via scripting. However I think when you import CSV (at least in excel) you can set what is the decimal point and what is the field separator...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hope it helps. Best,</p>
