Our Rhino3D Foundations for Industrial Design class provides an in-depth look at 2D and 3D tools and methods with Rhino3D, a NURBs surface modeling software. In this class, we will systematically work through Rhino3D’s core features, using them to model the various components of a consumer product. Over the course of 3 days, we’ll cover some foundational topics, including Rhino interface and navigation, Rhino3D object types and properties, creating and editing 2D and 3D geometry, procedural modeling, automation, transforming geometry, Rhino modeling best practices, freeform vs. precision modeling, and exporting geometry.
You’ll take away the following:
Navigate the Rhino modeling environment
Create, edit, and modify curves, surfaces, and solids
Precision model using coordinate input and object snaps
Use transformation and universal deformation tools
Apply best practices for layer management and model annotation

e think. Also, its easier to catch an error because the malicious component simply turns red/orange (in most cases). However, if you are adept at scripting, you are probably very used to recursive looping & conditional evaluation which you miss majorly in GH (it is possible in very limited ways through using series components or comparer components). So an adept scriptor may soon end up switching back to Rhinoscript unless they find the shift from VBscript to VB.net really fast & smooth (which is rare).
GH ofcourse has the advantage of keeping it all 'alive' and changing things with sliders/graphs/image painting, compared to Rhinoscript which is a run-once operation -- so that's where one makes a choice between recursive looping (in RS) & live interactivity (in GH). I'd say RS mostly wins the battle because interactivity is fancy, but recursion can be a necessity.
Now to VB.net. The one barrier I have hit most often with GH is speed. If you were working on a fairly large data set, or doing a number of surface/polysurface/brep operations, you hit the performance ceiling real fast, which is when the interactivity becomes almost useless -- because its nowhere close to real time anymore even if you had 12gb ram. Thus steps in VB.net (A bit of clever scripting can make a really significant difference).
Working a series of geometric operations in a code component is much faster than doing it through native GH components due to the fact that each native component comes with tonnes off error trapping code, preview generation (I think even if you turn it off, its still being computed, only not displayed), etc. while with VB, you can circumvent a lot of that.
If GH were to handle geometry even remotely comparable to what GC/Catia* can do, it would have a long way to go -- I am not sure if that is even the objective. For instance, I am currently working on a tower where all geometry is only meshes and polylines - no degree 3 curves, no surfaces/polysurfaces. This is because if the entire tower is to stay 'alive', Meshes are the lightest option with the amount of geometry being generated. And most of it is through code... there's only the sliders and a couple of other components that are GH native -- and its still in GH due to the interactivity. (I think there's a vast potential with Meshes that GH/Rhino are really not tapping into. There are all the building blocks, but no significant implementation. Giulio's weaverbird plugin is just a small example).
*GC/Catia cost significantly more than Rhino itself, and GH is a free plugin to Rhino. Morever, these softwares were written to be parametric modelling softwares from day1, unlike GH which is an add-on over the RhinoSDK, which was never developed from such a perspective. So a very very unfair comparison there, but GH is becoming so significant that its got a forum of its own -- gaining an almost 'independent software' status. I just hope the McNeel marketing people are not listening :)…

to run at full screen. I've gone as far as using an iPad to use as the second monitor via AirDisplay (which actually works really well) but have never been satisfied with any setup that required you to look back and forth as if at a tennis match all day long.
Not long after first using Grasshopper 3+ years ago I've had the desire for a "Live Viewport" component that would allow a live image of the 3d geometry being generated directly in the canvas. Every once in a while I search the forums with the hope of finding a solution, but always come up empty handed. Someday this might exist although for now I have found what might be the next best thing to a native "Live Viewport" component and its enabled with a small app named Sticky Previews. This app uses the task bar preview feature within Windows 7's aero interface to create custom, floating preview windows from any open window currently running. I've only just discovered the app, but it seems to do the trick and has been stable and problem free so far. -- I will post an update if I find out that I might have spoken too soon. The install allows for a 30 day trial and is $15 bucks to purchase. I just found the app and don't know anything about this group that created the app. If you happen to know of them, Id be curious to find out more.

serveral questions:the first thing is in c++ i have to implement more methods than in my c# test project.
they are:
int MyGhComponent::MasterParameterIndex::get(){ return 0;}void MyGhComponent::MasterParameterIndex::set(int index){ }bool MyGhComponent::IsValidMasterParameterIndex::get(){ return 1;}
i found no hint for the implementation of that interfaces. could someone tell me that is correct ?OK, it works, but is it well writen ? What is the MasterParameterIndex?
the second "bigger" problem is, i want to have an output of an pointlist.X y Z 1.2 1.3 1.12.1 5.2 9.2...
my first approch was to use a
void MyGhComponent::RegisterOutputParams(GH_Component::GH_OutputParamManager^ pManager){pManager->Register_PointParam("Coordinate", "XYZ", "Node-Coordinate");}
and
void MyGhComponent::SolveInstance(IGH_DataAccess^ DA){Collections::Generic::List<GH_IO::Types::GH_Point3D>^ pnt = gcnew Collections::Generic::List<GH_IO::Types::GH_Point3D>(); for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { GH_IO::Types::GH_Point3D^ point = gcnew GH_IO::Types::GH_Point3D(i, i, i); pnt->Add(i); } DA->SetDataList(3, pnt);}
but this exampel doesn't work...i wirte a small workaround and use the following
pManager->Register_DoubleParam("X-Koordinate", "X", "X"); pManager->Register_DoubleParam("Y-Koordinate", "Y", "Y"); pManager->Register_DoubleParam("Z-Koordinate", "Z", "Z"); Collections::Generic::List<double>^ pntx= gcnew Collections::Generic::List<double>(); Collections::Generic::List<double>^ pnty= gcnew Collections::Generic::List<double>(); Collections::Generic::List<double>^ pntz= gcnew Collections::Generic::List<double>(); ... add .. ect.
this workaround do the job, but i want a better soulution. and i know somewhere out there sould be a better solution. i want to use 3D Points directly in GH without list conversation.
so somebody a familiar with c++ / cli ? and could give me some tipps or a soulution ?
the first thing is: what is the right RegisterOutputParams ?
and witch data type is the right ? Point3d doesn't work. so i try GH_IO::Types::GH_Point3D and Rhino::Geometry::Point3d ...

rch, september, june.
I did two kind of simulation. The first one - just one hour 10h and then 15:30. The second, 10:00 to 15:30h. I think that's something wrong with the results kWh/m² because the biggest values for radiation, are for winter. And the results simulation 10:00 to 15:30h the result are different too, the biggest values for winter (june), then september, march, and them december (summer)
The results are (kWh/m²)
10:00h 15:30h 10 to15:30h
21/03 0,69 1,15 2,61
21/06 1,14 1,13 3,71
23/09 0,96 0,90 2,79
21/12 1,31 1,22 2,45
I will be very gratiful with your answer I'm using this software to a important academic work, and in my Country Its not commom use this software, I don't know anyone that could help me with this. I'd like to encourage university start to use this kind of software.
Thank you

rent actors to work together in real time on an architectural project.
DixieVR was born from the idea that virtual reality could become a fantastic tool for architecture and architects, not only for virtual tours but for the conception at its very core. Inspired by the efficiency of sandbox games, DixieVR will allow you to build a fully parametric 3D model from scratch in a very intuitive way and to simulate various factors like natural and artificial light, gravity, and more. DixieVR is also multi-user oriented : several people, architects or not, are able to work together in real time on the same 3D model and in the same shared immersive environment !
The project started in the Digital Knowledge department of Paris-Malaquais Architecture School.
The DixieVR Softwares can be found here : dixievr.github.io
// Interoperability
DixieVR deals with .dix files. For more information about this file format, please refer to the Interoperability documentation of DixieVR.
You can use this DixieIO plugin for Grasshopper/Rhinoceros for exchanging data between DixieVR (PC) & DixieViewer (Android).
You can import or export objects at any time inside a DixieVR scene. The Software also come with a library of premade objects that you might find useful. Adding your own premade objects to this library might be a good habit.
If you are hosting a scene, you also have the choice to open a .dix file directly from the main menu, this will load the last scene in which the geometry has been saved.
// Plugin
The DixieVR Plugin can be found in the Extra tab, come with 3 components and a example definition:
Dixie2Gh : Import DixieVR geometry to Grasshopper/Rhinoceros reading a .dix file (up to 1000 beams and/or 750 faces).
G2D_Polylines : Export Grasshopper/Rhinoceros Polylines to DixieVR writing a .dix file (up to 1000 line segments).
G2D_Mesh : Export Grasshopper/Rhinoceros Mesh to DixieVR writing a .dix file (up to 750 triangulated faces).
To install:
In Grasshopper, choose File > Special Folders > Components folder. Place the DixieIO_01.gha file there.
Right-click the file > Properties > make sure there is no "blocked" text.
Restart Rhinoceros or Unload Grasshopper.

doing this with the current tools or a bit of scripting since the Flickr API allows you to make requests in a REST format, but utilizing the Flickr.net API library makes it much simpler.
First and foremost, you need a Flickr API key...do you have one of those?
A great way to get to know the Flickr API is with the API Explorer. Here is a link to the page for the flickr.photos.search method explorer: http://www.flickr.com/services/api/explore/flickr.photos.search
The cool thing about this page is that it generates the REST Http call towards the bottom. So, here is what I did:
1. Grab the coordinates of the bounding box per Flickr API request:
bbox (Optional)
A comma-delimited list of 4 values defining the Bounding Box of the area that will be searched. The 4 values represent the bottom-left corner of the box and the top-right corner, minimum_longitude, minimum_latitude, maximum_longitude, maximum_latitude. Longitude has a range of -180 to 180 , latitude of -90 to 90. Defaults to -180, -90, 180, 90 if not specified. Unlike standard photo queries, geo (or bounding box) queries will only return 250 results per page. Geo queries require some sort of limiting agent in order to prevent the database from crying. This is basically like the check against "parameterless searches" for queries without a geo component. A tag, for instance, is considered a limiting agent as are user defined min_date_taken and min_date_upload parameters — If no limiting factor is passed we return only photos added in the last 12 hours (though we may extend the limit in the future).
So, I went to Google Earth, picked a city (London, UK) and dropped two pins:
This gave me two locations, which I can put into the Explorer Page next to the bbox option. Here is what I put for these two points: -0.155941,51.496768,-0.116783,51.511431
2. Check has_geo
3. In extras, type in geo
4. Make the call!
You will see a list of responses in an XML format, these responses will be from the first page. Geolocated photos are limited to 250 / page, so you will have to grab them page by page.
If you want to add more options (minimum upload date, maximum upload date, etc) you can do this as well)
The best is at the bottom, you get the full http call for this: http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photos.search&api_key=ffd44f601393a46e86aa3a5f8a013360&bbox=-0.155941%2C51.496768%2C-0.116783%2C51.511431&has_geo=&extras=geo&format=rest&api_sig=b42330e5d1523bd5fe60c2ad43acde99
Notice this call has some other api key, you should eventually replace this with your own.
You could copy and paste this into a browser and you will get the results with the latitude and longitude:
So this is really what you need to know to do this through GH. Since gHowl has an XML parser component that can access files on the web, you should be able to use the same http call into this component.
Eventually, we get a response, and we need to grab the lat and lon data. With gHowl we can map these to xyz coordinates, and generate the heatmap...this is just a linear mapping:
Attached are both the Rhino file and the Grasshopper file, as well as the image underlay.
I am working on a series of components that makes this more straightforward, but for now, this should get you started.

peuvent se diviser une surface avec ne importe quel motif imaginable. 3. Ici, je fournir un moyen de le faire via Lunchbox ... cela fonctionne mais il est fixe et donc nous avons besoin de jouer avec des arbres de données afin de créer le motif approprié par cas. 4. L'autre composante est un joint C # qui fait beaucoup de choses autres que de diviser ne importe quelle collection de points avec de nombreux modèles (voir le modèle ANDRE que je ai fait pour vous). 5. Vous devez décomposer une polysurface en morceaux afin de travailler sur les subdivisions. 6. Je donne une autre définition ainsi que pourrait agir comme un tutoriel sur la façon de traiter des ensembles de points via des composants de GH standards et des méthodes classiques.
Avertissez si tous ceux-ci apparaissent floue pour vous: Si oui, je pourrais écrire une définition utilisant des composants de GH classiques - mais vous perdrez les variations de motifs de division.
mieux, Peter
