Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Information

Hummingbird

Hummingbird is a set of Grasshopper components that facilitate the creation of Revit native geometry. This process exports basic geometric properties and parameter data to CSV text files which is used to describe many aspects of the Revit BIM geometry. In Revit this data is easily imported using the Whitefeet Modelbuilder tool (included).

Translating Rhino primative geometry to Revit has been vastly simplified without the need for linking or reference objects. This allows for the downstream Revit model to be modified and adapted for the project duration.

Hello Mario,

No phantom session in the Task Manager, and I do not see any right tab in Excel.

The only thing that I'm thinking could be interrupting the process is that I use to work my spreadsheets with libreoffice a version of openoffice. I installed Microsoft Office 2010 in order to work with Hummingbird plug in, maybe something is interfering but I'm not sure.

Armando, Check in the Task Manager that there are no phantom sessions of Excel running.  Per Tim's comment, start Excel with the Excel file open before running Rhino-GH.  By the way, are you looking at the right tab in Excel?

By the way, nice example first1

Hi Tim, same result if the excel file is open prior to define the path, or opened after, the only difference is the behavior of the Windows task bar, in the first case, when the xlsx file is opened before establish the path, the open xlsx file blinks on the task bar. In the second case, defining the path without have the excel file opened, the windows task bar appears and then hides again.

Another test I tried is run Rhino under Administrator mode, in this case something interesting happens, when the xlsx file is opened before establish the path, after define the path, an excel window pups up saying that the file is all ready open, with the option to open it in Read Mode, but in any case same result, no Data in the excel file.

Thanks in advance

Armando, is the excel file open prior to recalculating the grasshopper component?  if the excel file is not open it will flash in excel for a second and then close.

Mario,

Everything seems to work good, except for the data in Excel, all the files have "full control" permits, and are unblocked, actually when I connect the path, if I have open the excel file, it blinks in the task bar, so there are some recognition of activity between GH and Excel but no data.

Armondo: Can you be a little more specific.  Is the Grasshopper component working? Are you getting a messgage from the "out" connection? Mario

Comment by Armando Montejano on July 16, 2012 at 4:19pm

Hello,

Have the same problem,  no data collected in Excel, re download everything, check permissions, all are set to full control, and unlock each file. Nothing. Any other idea?
