Problem with EndPoints in Radial Waffle

Hi!

In this radial waffle i wanna pick all externals points of intersections, to make the panels to close the "cocoon".

But, my end points are not always in the same direction.

What`s happening? I think it is a data tree problem.

Thank`s!

Hi Rodolfo, just (re)sort the points by distance to the BBox's volume centroid:
Edit: this works with this shape, but you could also check the points distance to the exploded Breps inner and outer surface to sort the points correctly.

Thank`s! You save me!

I have one more problem, I need create many surfaces with 4 points (If I pick the four points of external waffle intersections) do make the flat panels (after i will inflate them) but, in "list item" I can`t list the points. I think its data tree but I try find a answer but I not get.

Thank`s!

could you upload a picture or sketch that shows what 4pt surface you mean?

Hi!

I make the surface in kangaroo, is a inflate panel. I wanna morph the panels in the cocoon to close him.

In second image my sketch is some examples, pick 4 external points of all intersections to choose the places to morph.

I attach the panels if necessary.

Thank`s!
