Using graph mapper to make a controllable curve between two points?

Hey guys,

I have a structure, where the top beams are formed by connecting the top end Points of the columns With a line. But I want to be able to Control the the shape of the beams, for example With a graph mapper. Is this possible?

Yes
You'd get more help from the community if you upload a GH file of your attempts.

Thank you for responding Julian. I have now uploaded the rhino and grasshopper file.

I tried to clean up the file a bit making it more understandable.

I am also having a problem making the roof of the structure.

Hi.

You seem to be using Graphmapper already, so the first question is hard to understand.
By using "Sweep2", you can easily create your roof.

Thank you very much Hyungsoo Kim :) I really appreciate the help. I did not know about the sweep2 Component. Very Nice.


I have now also figured out how to change the shape of the beams into a parabola using graph mapper by moving the z-values (same way as I did before), but right now I am unable to figure out a way to make a transition from the two edges of the building to the center of it ,so that the height difference between the original midpoint and the New midpoint of each beam will increase from the two edges of the building to the center of it.

What I think I need to do is to multiply the amplitude of the parabola With a series Component (increase the amplytude according to the index of each list With the beams, the two lists) or something like that, but I cant make it work
