Jon has already done some very interesting stuff with regard decomposing matters using IFC schema (I'm not a strong admirer of any schema policy mind - for a variety of reasons).
Now the chaotic case:
1. This is deliberately fuzzy, faulty and chaotic in order to indicate the need (at least IMHO) for a next step with regard handling and visualizing (on a per individual data item basis, not on a per branch basis) data trees.
2. Why this Tree Manager future thing could boost GH up to an unseen level? Exploit the PDF attached - use Saved views and/or the Model Tree "decomposer" (file is greatly reduced in detail - only 1 out of 5 floors shown, no envelope stuff, stripped out of everything actually etc etc etc). Among a variety of things observe that there's transformations that are "selectively" applied whilst various components remain intact (in other words: invite existed "static" objects into the smart chaos) - this means that we need a far better control VS the series (of various type of data) that outline the solution of similar things.
3. What could/should do such a "visual" Tree Manager? Could he function within the existed "one Canvas for all things" environment? Do we need N "sub-canvas" (kinda the Views in any CAD app these days) to handle and visualize complex tree operations? Do we need control on a per data item basis? Do we need a re-mapper of a totally different kind? Do we need a Bake Manager? Do we need a Scenario (parameter combos stored etc) Manager?
Let's the debate begin
Best, Peter

The issue is that downloaded 'pluto_20v2.csv' file is enormous - 290MB.
I tried to delete about 95% of it, and approximately use only the first 5%.
I hope the definition provides some insight.If not, let us know.I couldn't upload the files for some reason. They are here:https://www.dropbox.com/s/grxuta8v8x18u70/mapData.gh?dl=0https://www.dropbox.com/s/5igqsdnryz9df2q/pluto_20v2%20first%205perc.zip?dl=0…

y, he he) on that market segment (trusses and the likes) ... well ... you can't do anything in real-life without code. Too many reasons to list them here (indicative: connectivity Trees, member clash detection, instance definitions, managing solution variations talking to MCAD apps that do the parts in real-life ... blah, blah). If this is just an abstract exercise ... forget all the above.
3. Using a // (to the ground) "inner" surface (the 2 edges, that is) is tricky because without code you can't be sure where the whole procedure failed (a red component means nothing).
4. The weird big "component" provides ways to do things with surfaces (most notably: rebuild) that are not available as native components. Rebuild is critical when dividing surfaces
have fun, best, Lord of Darkness…
simple, there are many symetries in 3 main planes. So I used arcs rotated 45° from the main planes and I generate a pentagon which was mirrored and rotated many times.
At the end there are 24 pentagons and 8 hexagons so 32 faces, 54 points/vertex and 84 edges.
It could generate some others tessalation styles

ion of surfaces and/or "solids" : it's a very complex assembly of "components" either bespoke or widely available in the market. This demo combo summarizes the "common" cases (but the insulation for the opaque parts is WRONG 100%):
2. Contemporary trends (a bit of nonsense) point towards "liquid" forms. These ARE NOT made via "classic" linear systems. Very few actually can do it (I mean: do it yielding a building that doesn't leak]). Here's a totally wrong take on that matter from a very reputable Swiss facade maker:
And er ... hmm ... this :
3. Facade systems (curtain walls, that is) are classified in 4 classes: (a) the good old known humble stuff like the one shown in the first image (b) semi structural [yes], (c) structural [NO] and (d) planar frame-less systems.
4. Designing any proper facade is impossible with Rhino/GH: you'll need totally different software apps to do it - in real life - despite what most people believe/hope/wish.
5. Designing anything without a proper bottom-top approach (I.e. : first do the pistons then the engine) is the best recipe for not becoming (ever) a pro .…
r this or that etc etc).
3. I would strongly advise to use some decent feature/dimension driven CAD app in order to create families of concrete deck/beam(s) profiles "manually" (the good old way PLUS recording history and using parameters for the steps taken). Find a friend who knows, say, AECOSim and ask for a small demo on that matter (specifically ask what DDD is [Dimension Driven Design]). Then you can have these in Rhino/GH, define some topology, do the "solid" and if 1M of decks/beams are required rather use instance definitions and plane to plane transformations (that's what the Orient component does) instead of creating 1M clone objects.…
discussions during this period.
The major topics discussed for GH2 during this period will be:
Documentation/Help
GHA/Cluster/VB/C# App-Store
Localization (i.e. languages other than English)
Constraint Engine implementation
Improved VB/C#/Python development tools
Multi-threading the solver
Building a Mac version
If you feel something important was left out, please let us know here. Note that incremental improvements and bug-fixes are not worth discussion as we'll try and get around to them no matter what. Topics on this list have to fit the "Are we going to try and do X?" format.

n splitting curves and then join them to create the region; but I'am looking for a more straightforward solutions. 3- I know some plugins like clipper could do this, but I'm looking for more flexible solutions.
4- I tried Brep[] CreatePlanarBreps(IEnumerable<Curve>) in ghpython, but it doesn't work.

and visualizing data for ENVI-Met 4 software. ENVI-met is a cutting edge software used to analyse microclimate interactions in urban environment. Tens of different analysis types can be performed on the chosen building context. From Mean radiant temperature and local Wind speed to CO2 concentration and Pollutant dispersion in the air. To generate the building context for Ladybug ENVI-met components, Antonello used Gismo:
An example similar to results in upper screenshots has been been attached below. To run it, Gismo, Ladybug and Human plugins need to be installed. To perform the ENVI-met analysis, download ENVI-met 4 Basic for free, and install it. Steps in the .gh example file have been labelled from 1 to 11. They mostly consist of just setting a boolean toggle to True. An exception to this are steps 6 (set the folder path of your ENVI-met application install folder), and 8 (running the ENVI-met simulation). Step 8 has been explained in detail in the photo attached below (step8.jpg). Special thanks to Antonello for developing and guidance on ENVI-met application and components! Post questions below if you have any issues!…
