ithin the domain range if the curve intersects with the previous one or if the distance is too little, and back if the distance became too small. The script will then accept the result within some small tolerance. You can input a distance between objects that is larger than 0.
Here a screenshot of a sample input. While probably not perfect, this method seems more general and precise than the ones using offsets -- but it's slower and uses the Curve.ClosestPoints(curve, pt, pt) method from Rhino 5.
Some further optimizations are probably also possible. I hope this is useful,

What I currently have are a list of branches much like the ones above and a number of branch item lengths from pre-merged branches. With these lengths I have tried both using this data with the original path numbers to compare branches and decomposing the list of paths I want to cull into numbers to check though as the screen capture shows neither work as required.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Thank

1. How do I refer to the points in the for loop?
I have a list of points in grasshopper (not rhino objects) and I plugged them into python and named the input 'points'.
Then I had something like this:
for pt in points: ptCoord = rs.PointCoordinates(pt) x = ptCoord[0] y = ptCoord[1] z = ptCoord[2]
But I got error report in the bolded line saying
Parameter must be a Guid or string representing a Guid
2. How do I match multiple data to one
I know it's weird since the script can't read the points.. but sometimes the 'Distance' rhinoscript does work... however, it's giving me a single distance while I need a list of distances from multiple points to a target point
for pt in points: distance = rs.Distance(targetpoint,pt)
print distance
I don't know why it worked (it gave me a number so it seems to be reading the points).. However, it's giving me one single value. Is there anyway I cold make it a list?
3. This is extra.. but the ghpython doesn't fully work on my computer and it's weird..
It's ok if you guys completely ignore this question..
I just can't add new ghpython component to my computer.. Every time I tried to duplicate existing components, it gives me an error report saying it's missing the plug-in "python interpreter".. Also, even though grasshopper can successfully open this particular file that I'm working on, it gives me an error report and quit loading ghpython component every time I try to open another file containing ghpython..
I downloaded my ghpython from food4rhino, which works fine in my classmates' computers... I 'installed' (drag the ghpython into grasshopper) multiple times but it still doesn't seem to be working
Then I downloaded IronPython because some say it might work? But it didn't..
Thank you guys so much for this!…
: Instructor Andres Gonzalez explores the intermediate concepts of generative modeling in Rhino 5 using the Grasshopper add-on. He will apply these concepts to Grasshopper intermediate design and development numerous in numerous real-life examples with you. This course is for design professionals who are looking to efficiently learn concepts and features of Grasshopper at an accelerated pace in an instructor-led online environment. This course requires "Intro to Grasshopper" training or equivalent. Details: The class will be conducted in English using the GoToTraining software. You will need Rhino 5.0 for Windows or the Rhino 5.0 for Windows Eval installed. You will also need the latest build of Grasshopper. Using the Rhino for OSX WIP is not acceptable for this class.

hours/day (40 hours) Future University in Egypt (FUE) Department of Continuing Education(DCE) ________________________________________ The aim of this workshop is to teach participants how to create a parametric housing model which can be associated with day lighting and thermal analysis. Moreover, participant will get the opportunity to develop passively design envelope. The workshop is highly interactive giving different examples that develop a strong understanding of Grasshopper Workflow & different passive strategies using the performance simulation tool (DIVA). The participants are divided into groups to study the different orientations and the final outcomes of each group are presented thus concluding the recommendation strategies for each orientation. At the end of the workshop, each participant will receive a Certificate of Attendance from Future University in Egypt. Target Participants: ‐Professional architects. ‐Master and PhD students. ‐ Last year of undergraduate students (ONLY). Prerequisite: -None, however, a basic Grasshopper & Rhinoceros knowledge is preferred.

what i am calling the modeled component. as of now i have 4 points from an exploded tree that are configured to create 4 pt surfaces. i want to replace these, and have the 3 modeled components distributed across the quad surface. i'm not sure if this is possible. what i am trying to achieve is a quad surface, with an attractor point that determine the height of the modeled component. as the height increases, the diameter of the circle also increases. i think this might be a better route than 3 separate modeled components distributed across the surface.
in the file, you can see the shape i've chosen to give a range, showing the shortest modeled component with a small diameter, and the tallest with a large diameter but not too large, so that it doesn't extend outside of the perimeter of its base.
any suggestions from anyone?…
en you use the path mapper you are changing the address of what you are pointing at. Think of it like a street of houses full of people in every house. If you addressed a postcard to a single person in a particular house, the postal service looks at the street address then the house and then the person. But if you wanted everyone in the house to read the postcard you wouldn't address it to an individual you would just leave it as the house name. Thereby addressing many people with one address.
So after changing the path address you are referencing 3 sets of grid curves instead of 21 individual grid curves. And because you have 3 original curves GH will think that you only want to apply one set of grid curves to one original curve

p, open to designers worldwide, will explore the parametric mix of new raw materials and the re-use of elements from Carnival floats and costumes, transforming them using generative design processes and new digitally fabricated joint components, to create interventions for micro-venues and urban furniture in the Porto do Rio region.
Taught by AA Staff, recent AA graduates, and computation and fabrication professionals, the studio-based workshop will include extensive instruction in Rhino Grasshopper (including GECO, and Galapagos, to integrate environmental optimization, simulation and parametric control) and digital fabrication processes using laser cutter, CNC-milling and rapid-prototyping machines, sponsored by DS4 and SEACAM, all of which will be used to produce one-to-one design prototypes.

A-Points
the second path is containing my B-Points
the third path is containing my C-Points and
the fourth path is containing my D-Points
After grafting and merging the points into one list I have 21 paths containing
one A-Point, one B-Point, one C Point and one D Point.
If I try to connect all four points by using the polyline component it is connecting all points in the list.
How can I just create one closed polyline for 4 points and then for the next four points and so on?
Or
How could i split the tree into 21 single trees always containing one A,B,C and D Point?
Thank you guys for your support!!!!!!

am not sure what it does)
3. What is a component index and what is it doing?
4. s and t are doubles. but What are they doing?
6. The normal. First you dim the normal as a vector (does the .unset clear the default value?) Are you setting a new value to normal by placing it within the .closestpoint?
Sorry. But still learning.
Thanks,
