t, you can see 6 (+) signs with what you can add (A,B,C,P,Q,R).
Let's say you add A = 90 and B = 50.
Now you can't add the third angle (cause its 180-(50+90) = C output).
What you can add at the moment is P,Q,R.
You choose to add P = 10.
There is no more a possibility to add Q and R.
All component outputs now give us the data.
2. Triangle with P,Q,R
When you zoom the component, you can see 6 (+) signs with what you can add (A,B,C,P,Q,R).
Let's say you add P = 15, Q = 20.
Now if you add R, the component's outputs all the angles and edge lengths.
If R > P+Q then component throws warning. (> or >= ?)
You cannot add A,B or C anymone.
3.Triangle with P,Q and C
When you zoom the component, you can see 6 (+) signs with what you can add (A,B,C,P,Q,R).
Let's say you add P = 15, Q = 20.
Now if you add C (angle), the component's outputs all the angles and edge lengths.
You cannot add A,B or R anymone.
To make it all easier, disable the possibility to internalize the data.
Tolerance issue... Maybe round the angles always to floor , with 0.1 precision ?

We are posting a few experiments, created with the work-in-progress RABBIT 0.2. We plan to release it within a week or two…
RABBIT 0.2 has a lot of new features:…

being driven by the wii nunchuck... But, here's my issue. I tried it first by having the output from the listener be a 6-digit number... so, I'm using the (CInt(Val(StoredValue))) command and it's writing out 181130... and I can easily split it up selecting the Left(x,3) or Right(x,3)... I first rant that number through a Format("{0:000000}",x) so that even if one of the accx or accy numbers were a 2-digit number (so my overall number would only have 5-digits)... with this Format function... I'm always assured a 6-digit number. And this method works... except...
If the first group of numbers coming in only has 2-digits... So, lets say the accelerometer read out of the first one (accx) is 89. Let's say the accy read out is 119. So, when I run this through the Format function to make it have at least 6 digits, my number now reads 011989. So, if I were to take the first three numbers on the right, my read out would be 989... which is much higher than my expected (60-180 range that is really coming over the Serial Port)... So, I'm back to where I started... in that I need to figure out a better way to split up the data.
Which brings me to your method. I tried it as well... in fact, I added a comma in the serial readout, so the string coming out of the listener reads 89,119. So, I can use your trick to go look for a delimeter and then read to the left and right a certain number of digits... The problem I still have is that the data going into the function is a string, and thus even if I split the 3 digits to the right of the comma out (so, my output says 119)... it's still a string, and my number parameter is still red. In your picture above, was your original 181 130 a number or a string? My guess is that it was understood as a number, because your number parameters at the end are accepting the value. But, in my case... I'm still stuck with the inability to convert a string to a number... Does this make sense? And are their any other workarounds?…

-Area of blue line: min. 80% of the rectangel a x b
-Max. hight h of the top point: h,max = a
-Min. Volume between rectangel a x b and membrane: 500 m3
Can anyone help me?…
ned' as this is kind of unknown to me, which is why I wanted to look for a tool or script that might generate some geometry between the two. The fundamental principle is that the input meshes must retain 90+% of their original geometry (ie not deformed into an approximated wrapped shape) but be joined together by some sort of mesh geometry which acts as a link between the two shapes. The form for this could be highly abstract and doesn't need to conform to any parameters other than allowing the original meshes to be highly visible. I hope that makes sense, it may only be clear in my mind now that I have pursued it this far!With regards to the geometry wrapper, I found the example file that you sent us and attempted to plug in similar variables with my meshes, however the values returned by the geometry wrapper are constantly zero, no matter what I seem to change. I am currently plugging the mesh into a bounding box, which forms the box for both the geometry wrapper and iso surface and then inputting integers for the remaining parameters, though I'm not quite sure what actions these are performing. Would it help if I could send you my definition? I'm currently trying to internalise my meshes, though my rhino keeps crashing when I try! If you aren't able to follow any of the above let me know and I'll try and put together some simple diagrams that may explain it better.
Thanks,
Tom…

unique properties (color, UV map, vertex normal) the vertex is duplicated. So if you weld a mesh using the weld command with an angle tolerance of more than 90 degrees you're left with a box with 6 faces and 8 vertices.
It's quite a common way to describe meshes, Also the way your graphics card consumes meshes, so there's little CPU processing needed to process the meshes and feed them to the graphics card. If it's hard drive space you're worried about, there may be some compression possible. Apart from primitives, I don't know a geometry that do not represent a box by having four faces (including maya's polygons).
A mesh is considered closed when there are no naked edges. So for boxes this does not return false. I assume that internally spatial queries are used (or perhaps a check if the vertices are exactly the same)(see https://github.com/mcneel/rhinocommon/blob/master/dotnet/opennurbs/opennurbs_mesh.c )
Conclusion: If you want faces to show as having a (semi) creased edge, you'll have a vertex direction for each vertex.
However, if your goal is to make gears, I'd skip the whole part of creating meshes, and leverage Breps and extrusions to create the geometry, or using Extrusion (the geometry) might be a solution to create lightweight geometry, and forget about creating meshes yourself.

nt analysis - benchmarking >> bad condition of a face falsifies, resolution-dependence ...
B) if you use the karamba- or gh-mesher it still gives you bad results as your sphere has its nurbs-edge running through your cap. rotate the sphere 90° around x before and you are getting a nice mesh.
C) your supports are not defined just around its edge which i guess the benchmark would require?
D) you defined wood as the material, and there are some non-benchmark defaults for that i guess. also i am not sure but i think there have been some issues about the computability of shell element's materials with low shear modulus, and therefore the one of wood was raised. but you have to ask clemens for that.
nevertheless you can define your own material-properties with the resp. component
for me now, it calculates the first 5 buckling modes
good luck!
