orders from bottom to top. There are three pre-set heights: 20,000 / 50,000 / 80,000 (or 20, 50, 80 meters, I'm working in mm).
So if the three cantilevering volumes would be numbered 0,1 and 2, then I'm looking for a way to let Grasshopper generate the following:
A = 20m-position
B = 50m-position
C = 80m-position
(A,B,C):
0,1,2
0,2,1
1,0,2
1,2,0
2,0,1
2,1,0
Attached is wat I have so far, I have only managed to make simple translations per geometry.

summer because of the relative humidity of outdoor air will be over 80%.
I want to set the schedule like this
1) cooling setpoint to be 27C degree and max humidity to be 50%.
2) when the outdoor air temperature is lower than 27C, open the windows and ventilation naturally.
3) Air conditioning and dehumidification are needed only when the occupancies are at home (almost at night) and Natural ventilation is not to be.
4) Accept the indoor air relative humidity to be almost 100% when dry bulb temperature is lower than 27C.
Now, I set the air conditioning schedule as cooling setpoint schedule, but there are no components to set a dehumidification setpoint schedule.
The dehumidifier keeps working all day whichever the windows are opening or not.
How can I stop the dehumidifier during the windows open?
thank you.…
llowing for higher skyline and construction areas along public transportation corridors. Up until now, neighborhoods once characterized by two-story houses, gardens and ground- floor open shopfront programs, have been completely transformed by the introduction of fortressed monolithic residential and office towers, which lack any sort of urban street life.
The new master-plan, however, now requires buildings to have an open street façade to accommodate multiple programs. Led by tutors from UNStudio (www.unstudio.com), the AA Visiting School São Paulo will address the changes being prescribed by the new masterplan through the redefinition of the tower typology in the extending of the ground of street culture, green landscapes and ecological mediation along the vertical axis of these buildings. For this, the workshop will teach advanced digital design and fabrication techniques to explore a series of novel differentiating structural and environmental organizations in the redefinition of the São Paulo skyscraper.

angel but when it comes to material behavior, stresses, surface tension i think that "our" tools are still no complex and powerful enough - and like i said i didn't really see the benefit in the work of my friend form the digital experiment.
so i think the question is is there a benefit from your digital experiment or do you rather stick to the physical experiment.

,
and then I saw under Application that resources are managed by 'Icon and manifest'.
That can also be set as 'Resource file', but then a file path is required.
Is 'Icon and manifest' OK, or have I to set thing differently ?
Also, in the class code I inserted the following:
( I saw it mentioned here in the forum )
protected override Bitmap Icon { get { return Resources.colour; } }
( colour.png is the image file's name )
but VS gives me an error, saying:
Error 1 The name 'Resources' does not exist in the current context C:\Program Files\Rhinoceros 5 Evaluation\gh\plug-ins\ColourRhOb\Class1.cs 88 26 ColourRhOb
Did I miss a reference in the code ? Here they are:
using System;using System.Drawing;using System.Collections.Generic;using Grasshopper.Kernel;using Grasshopper.Kernel.Types;using Rhino;using Rhino.DocObjects;using Rhino.Geometry;
What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks

2. WORKSHOP (23-27 April 2014)
A 5 day Design-Based Research Workshop exploring new techniques in Digital Architecture/Fabrication, with a specific focus on the use of generative systems and parametric modeling as tools for creative expression.
Our ultimate goal is to increasing the efficiency of utilizing digital tools in parallel with geometric performance of the primitive design agent.
+ + CONCEPT
Fashion and Architecture are both based on basic life necessities – clothing and shelter.
However, they are also forms of self-expression – for both creators and consumers.
Both fashion and architecture affect our emotional being in many ways.
The agenda of this workshop is to investigate on the overlap between these two areas of design, art & fashion.
Fashion and architecture express ideas of personal, social and cultural identity, reflecting the concerns of the user and the ambition of the age. Their relationship is a symbiotic one and throughout history, clothing and buildings have echoed each other in form and appearance. This only seems natural as they not only share the primary function of providing shelter and protection for the body, but also because they both create space and volume out of flat, two-dimensional materials.
While they have much in common, they are also intrinsically different – address the human scale, but the proportions, sizes and shapes differ enormously.
+ + + OBJECTIVES
So far, Architects have been using techniques such as folding, bending etc. to create space, structural roofs or different other structural shapes.
The agenda of this workshop goes further with the investigation of algorithmic thinking through generative tools Integrated in design.
The challenge is creating a bridge that connects these two areas of design, architecture and fashion that perform at two opposite scales.
+ + + + TECHNICAL BRIEF
In the early stages physical models and low-tech strategies will be used, allowing the participants to gain a greater understanding of materials, fabrication and assembly methods as well as simple, yet pragmatic structural solutions.
Later in the workshop these strategies will be digitalized and elaborated using software visualizing tools such as Rhinoceros and the algorithmic plug-in Grasshopper.…
o Common - just like C#. But Rhino Python has a "Scripting Language Wrapper" which breaks commonly used taks down to simpler functions.
Here's a general Example:
Take a look at the code on this website http://wiki.mcneel.com/developer/rhinocommonsamples/addline). Generally it's Rhino Common code in three language to create a line. They look equally difficult.
But if you use Rhino Python Scripting you can use an simplified syntax to get the same result. It's very similar to Rhino Script.
The code would be:
import rhinoscriptsyntax as rsstart_point = rs.GetPoint("Get start point")end_point = rs.GetPoint("Get end point")line_id = rs.AddLine(start_point, end_point)
OK - No Error Tracking here, but still you can see that the syntax is much simpler. (And in the end you just have less lines of code you have to debug.
And the good thing about Rhino Python is, that you can mix these approaches. Once you reach a level where Rhino Python Script doesn't get you there, which by the way happens very rarely, you can still use the Rhino Common methods.
Also, in Python Sycripting 99% of what you probably would like to do is available as a "wrapped" script function.
Rhino Python Script is currently also better documented than Rhino Common for C# and VB.Net. If you have used Rhino VB Script before, these functions will be very familar to you.
I'm not sure, why it's currently a separate plug-in. I belive the reason is that Rhino 4 (which is supported by GH) doesn't support Rhino Python. Also it's currently WIP, so it needed to be updated more frequently than GH itself. In the long run (I believe) it might be integrated into GH as a general component
- Martin
P.S.: To use Rhino Python within GH is a little more tricky than my example - but nothing compared to developing C#
P.S.2 Here's the code with Error Tracking:
import rhinoscriptsyntax as rsdef AddLine(): start_point = rs.GetPoint("Get start point") if start_point is None: print "No start point was selected" return end_point = rs.GetPoint("Get end point") if end_point is None: print "No end point was selected" return line_id = rs.AddLine(start_point, end_point) return line_idAddLine()
…
obably only using Rhino4, but three people who bought Rhino2, Rhino3 and Rhino4 respectively are three people using one version each.
We certainly don't know how many Grasshopper users there are. Grasshopper installers are not always downloaded via our website or -once downloaded- used multiple times (think class-rooms and company IT). We have no way of knowing whether someone who once downloaded Grasshopper is still using it. That being said, Grasshopper is downloaded ~100 times a day from our website and this number has been fairly constant since 2009 (though slightly on the increase, I'd say ~80 a day in early 2009). There are nearly 96,000 unique email addresses in the Grasshopper mailing list, more than 455,000 in the Rhino4 mailing list.
The size of this community (>17,000 registered users) is a much better indicator of user-base magnitude, but even here we have no idea how many people registered but are now no longer using GH as we do not collect use statistics (yet).
