Hi, I am actually desiging a wall (sort of memorial) that is 20m long by 3m height.
I need to feed the wall with 7000 full names (EX; Pascal Gobeil).
There is also 3 differents heights for the names (following the importance of donation).
I have the idea to create rectangles based on text lenght and variable heights (3 types) that are bounding "like tetris" (computation a best solutions) (i dont want to have continus row or colomn if it's possible)
I found some jQuery (JCloud) but i dont know how it works and the random definition dont allow me to put precise height variations.
I am not using grasshopper enought to know how to build it but i know that someone here will probably do it easily.Thanks for you help!

There are many algorithm on internet That can be implémented on GH search for rectangle packing

Check out RhinoNest. It may do what you want.
Or PackRat.
