Merge two different Geometries

Hey y'all,

I am new to Grasshopper and struggling with it, but loving it though, because it can do so many cool things, and I am eager to learn the software.

I am trying to make a long cylinder where one end is made up of a square and the other end is made up of a triangle, and these two merge gradually. For a clearer description of my enquiry, please se image :)


Thank you
Marios

    Im pretty sure you can't do that, but i may be mistaken. Here is something you may want to try. Take a section in the middle and make it a circle. Then make the one end geometry a square and the other end geometry a triangle. If grasshopper can loft the three of them together then you can pursue this definition longer.

    Thanks Seth :) I'll try to do that.

    The merge function will take two different Geometries and will be able to combine them into one geometry. The merge function is a basic operation that can be used to combine two geometries together. It's useful when you want your models to be consistent and uniform, or if you want to simplify your model.The merge function takes two geometries and returns a new geometry with the same properties as the input geometries. Merging two geometries together is straightforward: just pass in an empty object or null as the second argument. I will have to get the list of casinos in Ontario because before going to Canada I will have to find that list so that I could enjoy my tour with my friends.
