nnecting only the verticies of identical indices and not crosswise like from 1 to 2 or 2 to 3 etc..
And i looking for a sleek and simple method to accomplish this.
The definition that you postet looks quite smart but still too complex.
So i'm still experimenting with the intcrv-component.

mpletes, i will be incremented. The default increment amount is 1.
If you change the syntax to be:
For i As Int32 = 0 To 9 Step 2
then i will be incremented by 2 each time. So now the loop will run 5 times:
first iteration i = 0
second iteration i = 2
third iteration i = 4
fourth iteration i = 6
fifth iteration i = 8
sixth iteration i = 10 which is more than 9 so the 6th iteration never happens.
If you use Step 0, i isn't incremented at all, and the loop should run forever, unless you have some other abort statement or if you adjust the iteration variables inside the loop. You are doing the latter. Your iteration variable is D. The loop itself does not increment it, but you manually increment it when you call D += T.
Although this is logically solid, it is very bad practice since it makes the code very hard to read.
Since D, R and N are not external variables, I would not expose them as Input parameters.
Also, you inner loop is very weird:
For R = R1 To R Step 0
Your iteration variable here is R, but your termination limit is also R. Not to mention the step is again zero.
Trying to debug this is very difficult because it's been written in a very unorthodox fashion. I have a distinct feeling this algorithm can be written down with far fewer variables and constructs.

m with the default settings in the boxes.
But you can also try first to create a section of your wrongly baked pieces: Because for me all sections were perfectly fine (all trimmed), so they were actually cut but the problem was in the representation of them.…
en points. Could it be somehow done so that there are two distances, and that the points are arranged in a,b,a,b,a,b,a,b... I would do the length division by evaluating the curve in 0-1, but i haven't got a clue how to do it with distances.…

22 (parametric design)
July 26-27-28-29 (digital fabrication)
The third edition of digitalMed Workshop is structured as a design laboratory. Participants will learn the challenging process of producing ideas, projects and research analysis that are to be developed through specific software and concepts that emerge through the use of mapping, parametric design and digital fabrication.
Goals and Objectives:
We aim to make clear the theoretical and technical knowledge in the approach to parametric and generative design and digital fabrication. (From collection and data management, to the manner in which these inform the geometries, to the fabrication of prototypes.)
Participants will also have the opportunity to practice the new knowledge gained in the design laboratory through project work.
Project Theme:
"Urban Field" Identify, study and analyze the system of public spaces in the urban area of the city of Salerno.
Connection, mutation, generation and evolution are the themes to be followed in project work.
Brief Description of Topics:
- Mapping. Our reality, in all its forms, has studied through concepts of the theory of Complex Systems. The techniques that will be used to study events and places of reality, will work for the management, manipulation and visualization of data and information. These will form the basis for project management and driven geometry, conducted during the second phase of the workshop.
- Parametric Design. Introduction to Rhino* and Grasshopper. Specifically, we will explain the concepts with which to work with the software of parametric design and how they function. Through these tools, we will arrive at the definition of systems of mathematical and / or geometrical relationships that are able to generate and govern patterns, shapes and objects that will inform the final design.
- Digital Fabrication. In this phase, participants of the workshop are organized into working groups. Participants have access to materials and conceptual apparatus that will take them directly to the fabrication of the geometries of the project, with the use of software CAD / CAM interface and the use of machines for the digital fabrication.
The DigitalMed workshop is organized by Nomad AREA (Academy of Research & Training in topics of Contemporary Architecture), in collaboration with the City of Salerno, the Order of Architects Province of Salerno and the National Institute of Architecture In / Arch - Campania.
Interested parties may download the Notice of Competition at the address www.digitalmedworkshop.com and fill the pre-registration no later than July 10th 2012.

nonsense once you think about it.
In order to recieve equal segments along each isocurve in both directions (u, v) it requires a surface to have following properties when flattened out:
a) only four corners
b) edges of opposite sides of equal length
in other words subdivided surfaces need to be square or at least rectangular when flattened out or else they will represent trapezes which must result in edges of differing length along isocurves of at least one direction.
Other words it simply cannot work with any surface.
So SORRY to all and especially to JJ for posting my problem as a failure of GH resp. as a problem possessing a general solution.
:)
-------------------------------------------------------------…
split a circle into seven segments and then move /copy 3 of those segements in Z-direction.
I attached what I came up with so far.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thank you!!!!…
earch your harddrive for files with the extension *.ehc and *.gha, these indicate a left-over Grasshopper installation.
