interesting work :)

Thanks a lot Rajaa!

you welcome :)

Hi Rajaa,
I actually don't understand the j=0 and j=1 declaration within the if statement. Isn't it redundant? Am I missing something?
Best,

Giulio

You are right, it is redundant... I actually implemented it differently to start with and this was unnecessarily left in.

Hi, Rajaa:

I am going to study your code. Wondering if you can put a sequence number on each point?

Hi cmrhm,
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "put sequence number on each point". Can you elaborate or give an example?

Like the following.

in your code:

For j = 0 To v_num - 2
Dim CurrPt As New On3dPoint(curr_x + j * dis, curr_y + i * dis / 2, z)
grid.Add(CurrPt, path)
Next

is there anyway to write out the coordinates for each point CurrPt?

Also write out the sequence numbers when each point was put into Rhino interface? For example, You output 190 points, so point(0,0,0) must be the first one. How I can write 1 around this pint?

Hi,
When you examine the script, you'll see that:
A: the output of the script, is a 2d array of points. Points show on screen.

Now when you say "write out the coordinates for each point", where do you want to write it? On screen? Or, do you mean that we construct a one dimensional array of these points? If so, you can flatten the output "A".

Also, when you say "sequence", do you mean to output a number on screen? If so, you can use the flat list of points and "Point List" component in GH for this.

Does that answer your question?

Here is an image for what is described below..

Rajaa:

Thanks for pointing out using component 'point list' and the posted image! That is exactly what I am looking for.

Rajaa: Now I've figured everything out and realize how to use Data Trees just like multidimensional arrays (but even better) in a VB.net component. Thanks for your original example; it got the ball rolling for me. Best, J

That is great.

Rajaa: Do you know if it is possible to use the RhUtil.RhinoInterpCurve function with a Data Tree branch (full of points) to make a curve? It works to create a Control Point curve: "crv.CreateClampedUniformNurbs(3,data_tree.Branch(0).ToArray, Nothing, Nothing,1)"...But trying something similar with the InterpCurve function has not worked for me so far.
