closed polysurfaces that have no object names
I now need a way to transfer the lot ID's of the 2D curves to the 3D polysurfaces. I've already gotten very close to a solution by using Curve CP to find the closest cuve to the center point of each polysurface. Unfortunately, I've now discovered that my lot curves aren't perfectly clean and this solution fails whenever one of the lot curves slightly overlaps into an adjacent lot because it then becomes the closest curve.
The simplest solution I can think of would be to offset all of the curves by a small margin inward so that there is no longer any overlap, but I would need to do this in a way that preserves the object name of the original curve, so that the offset can then pass the name on to the polysurface. I imagine this is possible, but I am relatively new to grasshopper and so I am hitting a wall here.
If anyone knows an existing offset component out there that can do this on a large set of curves, or if there is an even easier solution to my original problem, I would be very grateful-- thanks!…
accept untrimmed surfaces, only Open Brep, but sometimes, seemingly out of the blue, the Open Brep changes into Untrimmed Surfaces and vice versa. I've already checked the unit tolerance in Rhino, that made no difference. Any ideas about where I could be going wrong?

Second issue is that some of the geometries should 'curl' outside their grid boundaries. I need to be able to play with the grid size while the geometry maintains its position.
Also, the first set of these geometries (bottom of image) should translate as a flat surface. But the points 1 and 3 tend to stick to the 2nd Grid - creating openings on the side. How could I fix that?
--
Third issue is that the geometries seem to be a little 'squished' at their plane normal (right until where the 2nd Grid offsets). I tried adding a number slider between the [z-vector] in the ptCoordinates and the [translation vector] in the Move component.. but that isn't working. Ideally I wouldn't need to control the offset distance, the shapes would retain proportion automatically. Any ideas?
Thanks so much in advance! :)

surfaces in different way, much more schematic, in this way you could increase the speed of the calculation.
If you want take a look here:

but I cant make it work with the Hinge tool.
Could anybody tell me how to make this 2 triangles fold as I show in this screenshot?
Below are the grasshopper definition I've been trying to do following the Kangaroo basics video, and the two triangles 3dm file.
Thanks…
ed various mesh and surface intersect components, but figured I may as well ask if someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.
The image below attempts to illustrate my goal:

nt's output until you see a little (+) sign and click on it to get more outputs.
tip2: Connect the items you want to the entwine component in the desired order, pressing shift while dragging the second wire.
edit:
for a more generic solution that will accept larger lists you can do something like this:

ated in all editions of Architektura Parametryczna Workshops!Architektura Parametryczna Workshops Optimization Warsaw 2016 FAQWHEN?21-22nd May 2016 (Saturday-Sunday)HOW LONG DO THE WORKHSOPS LAST?The workshops last in total 16 hours.Saturday 10AM -7PM (with lunch break), Sunday 10AM -7PM (with lunch break)WHAT WILL I LEARN?On Saturday the optimization processes with solar, views and structural analysis will be explored. We will be discovering optimal solutions with the help of plug-ins such as Galapagos, Silvereye, Octopus, Karamba and Ladybug. In the Sunday morning we will learn how to present the results of the optimization: creating catalogues of solutions and printing the optimization graphs. In the afternoon participants will have time for the development of the personal project. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?The workshops cost 600 PLN (or 160€) for Early Bird payments and 700 PLN (or 190€) for the regular payments. The 3-person group - 1500 PLN (or 440€ )EARLY BIRD?For those who are certain that they will attend the workshops, we have a special Early Bird offer till 30th of April 2016.HOW CAN I SIGN UP?Send an email to info@architekturaparametryczna.pl with the title: “OPTI WAW 16”.HOW MANY PLACES ARE AVAILABLE?We have only 11 places!WORKSHOPS: Level: intermediate – advancePerquisites: the basic knowledge of Rhino and Grasshopper3D. Plug-ins: Silvereye, Octopus, Ladybug, Karamba. Weaverbird. Python GHThe main aim of the 16-hour workshops is to give the participants the understanding of how the optimization process can be used in practice and how it can help in solving everyday design problems. The practical exercise will be supported with the short lectures explaining the theoretical background of the optimization algorithms. The general program of the Optimization Warsaw 2016 Workshops*:1. Optimization of the facade geometry with solar analysis.2. Optimization of the roof structures with Karamba.3. Finding the optimal configuration of the space frame structures with Karamba.4. Discovering the best location or/and geometry of the building in accordance to the best views from the plot.5. Presentation of the discovered solutions. *Some of the exercises might be changed.…
