d react in length to the variation of their respective angle deviation from the sun.
For the moment I have established a way that depending on Bigger than/Smaller than X value, there is a dispatch of data to produce to types of panel lenghts. As you can see on the image.
But I would be interested to find the way to organize the list of all angles and classify them in groups like 5 packages of 20 degrees deviation. So, the panels deviated 16,3 and 27,9 degrees would go in the package of 15-35º, for example, and the 33,1 would go in the 35-45º...etc..
And the question would be to assign the different groups of angles, to given positions for the vectors that define the panel surfaces.
I am confused at how I should tackle this problem. Is it a question of dividing domains? Or creating sublists? But then, how can I assign the data to a set of positions? Dispatch only works with A/B..
And if so, how could I limit the positions of the vectors that define the surfaces, to a min and max length that would not overlap out of the base pattern?
These are huge questions, eh? But I'm sure that someone has tackled this problem before...
Looks like an accumulation of pretty standard problems,..but all together!
Thanks a million for any examples or hints on how this could work!

lacking in the Rhino 5 Grasshopper 0.9.X Python component editor:
The best screen font I've found is called Volter (Goldfish).
It shows up after I type the first (.
I also found BlendContinuity values here:
http://developer.rhino3d.com/api/RhinoCommon/html/T_Rhino_Geometry_...
Position 0
Tangency 1
Curvature 2
However, the command fails with this error unless I use zero, but position is not a blend at all, just a straight loft, though the command with zero gives no output, just an empty brep list.
Runtime error (TypeErrorException): Cannot convert numeric value 1 to BlendContinuity. The value must be zero.
Why do you guys not provide simple examples in the reference? Rhino.Geometry.BlendContinuity has no example of how to use it. If I set b = Rhino.Geometry.BlendContinuity() and print b it says "position." How do I set it to tangency? I have no idea. You can't put a number in the parentheses.
A related command has the same structure:
http://developer.rhino3d.com/api/RhinoCommon/html/M_Rhino_Geometry_Curve_CreateBlendCurve_2.htm…
of stuff. Then it works either with ExoW (black mesh) or IntraLattice (blue mesh).
That said ExoW is tricky: occasionally reports engulfing issues and stops playing the game. For instance in this (diagonal) anchor mode and with some U/V random values:
Whilst IntraLattice appears rather less temperamental:
The other def is more complex and works using the Proximity approach that makes more sense with regard random 3d line graphs (as an exercise: Add a gate and use IntraLattice as Plan B).

Here it the RhinoScript that I am using:

hit Commit.
I'm wondering how hard it would be to have an edit box which shows the
number the user could click inside of then type in a new number, then
hit enter. :)
2) How would I go about using one line from a table and assign each
field to a variable? Then, move a slider or something and use the values
from the next row?
background: I'm recreating elbows, Tees, and other fittings using
paramatric scripts, then baking and exporting them. Here's one source
table, http://www.wardfittings.com/Assets/PDFs/0902CatalogColorOld.pdf
page 5, the uniform elbows.
Current Setup: the attached ghx file. Create a point at 0,5,0 in a blank
document with units set to inches, then assign that point to the top
left 'Center Pnt' in the ghx file.
Current workflow:
a) Modify variables A, B, H, and Nominal Dia to match one line from the
table in the linked PDF file, page 5, table of regular elbows.
b) Select the 'Nodes' and 'Surfaces' with a drag box
c) Click 'Bake'
d) Switch to Rhino window, do the 'sellast' command.
e) Drag baked objects along Y axis so the center point is at 0,0,0
f) Run 'Join'
g) Run 'Cap'
h) set the 'node' points to a layer called 'nodes'
i) set the surface to a layer called 'fit-3d'.
j) select the surfaces and nodes
k) export selected
This elbow that I'm doing only has 12 rows, so doing it the above method
doesn't take THAT long. I'm also going to be doing a couple with larger
tables like the Tee on page 8, and in other spec files. As you can
imagine, entering in EACH value into a slider is a bit tedious.
I'd love to take the pdf table, run it through an OCR program to convert
to excel, modify the headers so the ghx script knows what they are, then
paste it into grasshopper, or save it and have grasshopper read it, and
I be able to move a slider or something to to select one line at a time.
Has anyone done something similar? ie: assigned one row in a table to a
predefined set of variables, each variable coming from one field in the row?
Thanks for taking the time to read this message. :)
I'm making a rhino script to do steps d-k, so that part will be much faster.

the other pluggins again, I doubt that problems arise and if I already have them Which are due to the autodesk pluggins that I can install on another computer or mount a virtual machine, but I doubt it, I simply had to install Grasshopper first and then the rest.)
Problem:
Good day, afternoon or night, please help I can not install the Grasshopper plugin 0.9.76.0 in Rhinoceros 5SR13, I do not know if it is because I uninstalled the version of 32 Bit of Rhinoceros and I only have installed the 64 Bit version, I have installed on Rhinoceros 64 Bit:
Autodesk Realtime Renderer 2014 x64 Autodesk Shape Modeling 2014 x64 Autodesk T-Splines 2015 x64 V-Ray 2.00.23938 for Rhinoceros 5 x64 V-Ray Express 2 for Rhinoceros 5
I would infinitely appreciate the resolution to this problem, for the moment I can not think of anything other than to uninstall everything and leave only installed the program Rhinoceros 5SR13 with Grasshopper 0.9.76.0 and nothing more.
I already tried to download another new file from Grasshopper 0.9.76.0, which ruled out that this installer is wrong, what I could do is look for another version of Rhinoceros but I have the newest one or one of the newest versions: Rhino_5.13.60913.21340_x86_x64_Multi. Exe
I understand that the Grasshoper installer is showing me a message where it says there is a Win32 exception where the system can not find the source file, what I do not know is if this exception has to do with the Windows C /: Folder: Windows, subfolder: System32 or I do not know if it refers to that as I do not have the 32 bit version of Rhinoceros maybe the installer gets confused and generates the installation error exception.
Another thing to which the exception is associated is the start process file: Start.nfo or start information.
There is also a programming argument for file upload errors of boolean operations (geometry operators) associated with the platform operating system, a process called child process.
Also appears another note that says the installed package of a plugin called inspector and I do not know what else I can not explain.
I do not know what to do, I just happen to uninstall and install everything and I do not think the Rhinoceros installer has any errors, I have Windows 10 edition of Red Stone 1 of 64 Bit.
Thanks and if anyone had this problem and solved it please tell me how to fix it or if someone knows about programming you can tell me why all those errors or exceptions are.
Greetings, have a nice day, afternoon or night wherever you step or stand or wherever you are sitting or lying down.…
n lofting, though, it makes perfect sense to scale sections independently from the distance between them.
For practical use, I found the graph mapper clumsy; too course and approximate. So I adapted the code I wrote here (Maths + Divide Curve) so that a list of numbers drives the spacing and, optionally(!), the scaling.
When 'Scale by Distance' is false, the numbers in the list determine scaling; '1' is actual size, '0.5' is half size, '2' is twice the size, etc.
When 'Scale by Distance' is true, the distance between the points is used for scaling. This is an indirect effect of the list of numbers (which determines point spacing) and the size of the original shape relative to the curve length.
'Tangent 0' is the curve tangent at each point. It works well for lofting.
'Tangent 1' is the vector between each point and its successor. It works well for orienting solids.
There are still some mysteries... ("Where there is mystery, there is no mastery.")
Lofting doesn't always work well, 'Cap Planar Holes' doesn't work anymore...
I had hoped that this sequence, ".5,1,2,1,.5", would result in:
two half size shapes, one at each end of the curve.
two full size ("1") and one double size ("2") shapes, spaced appropriately.
But I have a mental block about how to achieve that...? :( Instead, I settled for the last of the five shapes being one point short from the end of the curve, and the spacing is off.
Even so, I find this approach easier to use on a practical basis than the graph mapper.
