algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Please Help with this simple problem i can't work out

Hi all,

I've created a component (lofting 2 polygons crvs) that I want to use it repeatedly on a surface.

I want the polygon's radius to change size according to an attractor point.

for some reason when i feed the distances created from attractor point to srf points it doesn't work.

Any advise or help would be great.

Antonio

Hey Antonio,

since you are using the morph component in this definition, I simply scaled the geometries using their base points on the surface and there proximity to the attractor point. I'm not sure exactly what you are after, but I attached a new file ending in 3 which i think is what you want.

good luck

Hi Brendon,

Thanks for the quick reply.
I have attached a pic with what i am after. With the only difference that i would like to have control over the tapering of each polygon curve. So, for example on one side of the wall i would like to have larger openings, and on the opposite smaller. (tapered)

thanks in advanced, if u have any tips would be good

A
