<p>Hi John, </p>
<p>Thanks for the reply. </p>
<p>I agree in most of the cases it is not worth but however I am trying to develop a way to work with direct fabrication design via calculating things like the length of the polyline, some other functions are involved. I guess this would require a loop in the definition. </p>
<p>The Rhino6 has a super nice pipe display but that works much faster than isomesh, etc.. </p>
<p>Looking forward to your update, good luck, </p>

<p>Hi ASY,</p>
<p>Sorry it's taken a while to reply. Been a busy couple of months.</p>
<p>The short answer is "not yet"!</p>
<p>At one point I thought it wouldn't be worth it, seen as the user could use a low resolution mesh sphere / mesh pipe to their own required resolution (if that makes sense), however for the application you describe the allowance for gh calculation time might be inhibitive.</p>

<p>I'll look into it again now - I know that the helix toolkit has some display methods for curves which I got working at some point albeit they were pretty slow. Will let you know soon. Just been fixing things for Rhino 6 today.</p>
