Packing circles on surfaces

by Daniel Piker

Mar 2, 2011

In response to an off-list question, here is another version of the point distribution example, with an addition to display circles oriented to the surface

    Hi Daniel, 
    I'm trying to do a similar thing with the constrain mesh component so I can create a distorted mesh over one created from the 'deformedDrape' example. However, whatever geometry I put in causes the kangaroo component to error. I tried using a smaller/less complex mesh but I don't think that's the problem...

      Hi Daniel,

      Im a very new user at GH and I would like to know, is there a way to set random sizes of circles on that surface? let´s say 4 different circle sizes organized in a random way?

      Thanks.

        Hi, 

        I'm trying to apply this to a surface of my own. I'd love to look at the script that you have done, however, I have a strange problem with your file. It says I don't have kangaroo physics installed (which I do). Has anyone else had this problem? 

        Thanks
