taTree.
2. Since GH is acyclic by design we can't pick individually (without code, that is) our "picks" for the iceberg ... thus we need a global policy applied to ALL grid points at once.
3. This is what the next part does: it picks randomly some iceberg stuff and modifies their Z by a random value. If the Z is always "above" the grid or not it depends upon the domain of values to operate. Seed means "roll the bones again" (meaning another collection).
4. So we have the modified points Data Tree (that are steady - acting as the tips of the iceberg). Let's call them Anchors.
5. If we subtract set 4 from 1 we have the points prone to vary according some manipulation. Kangaroo does that manipulation (this is the best add-on that GH has to offer by 1M miles made by a very clever fella).
6. But if we instruct Kangaroo to do the job... he makes chaos since the points in 4 are not sufficient: we need perimeter steady points that act as Anchors as well. So we manage some logic to pick a variable set of perimeter points and we "merge" 4 and 6 and we have the final set of Anchors on hand - whilst all the rest are points willing to change.
7. Kangaroo is a physics engine meaning that the only thing that understands is ... er ... points and their relation (the "line" connecting them, that is). Kinda like a CPU that understands 0 and 1 and nothing else.
8. So we provide Kangaroo info about all the lines involved: how "stiff" they are and what is the expected/desired final length.
9. By double clicking the Kangaroo component ... the "simulation" starts running (in some kind of "loops") and goes towards an "equilibrium" where all our desires are satisfied - or the solution's entropy is the minimum possible (well up to some level, he he). Kangaroo displays a small control dialog that allows you to halt the process or reset it (meaning: start again).
10. If the instructions are "good"/"proper" the "loops" (iterations) are relatively few: if K does 1M "loops" ... this means that your instructions are silly or not well thought.
After stopping Kangaroo ... we have (hopefully) a "well" distorted collection of points (and their equivalent mesh) to proceed further via components usually found in the WB add-on
PS: If all the above sound Greek to you ... it's because I'm Greek, he he.
Moral: Get the gist of Kangaroo ASAP - worth spending some time I recon. If you do that and you need examples (other than the ones available at download time) ... well I have more than 300 (from simple to ultra paranoid).…
to make the script perform the command for me. The problem is that the rhinoscriptsintax command doesn't look to be working. Even the code from the example when I substitute the lines with selected curves:
import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs
curve0 = rs.GetObject("curve 0",4)
curve1 = rs.GetObject("curve 1",4)
rs.AddFilletCurve( curve0, curve1 )
The error give is :
Message: Unable to add curve to document
Traceback: line 215, in AddFilletCurve, "C:\Users\Vincenzo\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\5.0\Plug-ins\IronPython (814d908a-e25c-493d-97e9-ee3861957f49)\settings\lib\rhinoscript\curve.py" line 8, in <module>, "C:\Users\Vincenzo\AppData\Local\Temp\TempScript.py"
And this even for two simple curves created in the document. It only works if the two curves are actually touching one another with one end, but this is not the situation I am into.
So if this command cannot work with two separate curves (can it?) what I thought was to use a rhino.command in order to get the _Fillet command out to rhino. But I couldn't find a way to select the two curves not manually but through the script:
rs.Command("_Fillet")
rs.SelectObject(curve0)
rs.SelectObject(curve1)
doesn't work because the rs.select runs only after the previous one has been processed completely.
Of course I cannot select manually all the curves which are generated by the script, do you have any suggestion?
Thank you a lot in advance

2. See this? It's a abstract (for the moment) layout of some WIP thing: Imagine a region where "evenly" random points are placed (and then a random zNoise is added) - then a ball-pivot/delauney triangulation is applied ... then ... :
2. I use my method to create "even" points (I suspect that David's is way better/faster/cooler ... but anyway): after a random point is found (inside the region) an additional check is performed: think of the point as a "candidate" that must "pass" a 2nd constrain: if the min distance from all the already found (random) points is smaller than a user defined one > reject and try again (the "try-again" thing [call it: min distance "loops"] is also user controllable). Thus that C# captured attempts to place 122 points but due to (a) the min distance constrain AND (b) the low (about 8 in this case) amount of "try-again" loops it finishes with "only" 59 (not a big deal for this case). The interesting part is that the attempts required are 1573 (~30 times the random points returned). Of course there's a lot of factors affecting this 1573 (variable) thing ... but don't stick to that.
3. So if David uses a "similar" culling method (add some " " more, he he) ... for 80K points ... well we are talking about a BIG number of attempts.
I can provide you with a "no-even" random points C# that (I assume/guess/hope) can speed things a bit (after all: who's gonna notice an "even" random distribution of 80K points within a micro cube?).
best, Peter

s the "Surface Populating" definition: I manage to populate my geometry over the surface, but after I bake it, I have to delete the boxes that define my components limits as well! Is there any way of populating and baking only the chosen component, without having to delete the boxes afterwards?
Secondly:
Basically: I am trying to cover a surface with two types of components [ an open one and a closed one] , which will be proliferated over my tubular surface according to the main sunlight direction.
1. I introduce the surface component.
2. I use "Divide Interval2" in order to have division into U and V.
3. i generate the target boxes [ "surfaceBox"] .
4. I use "Isotrim" ( same intervals) and "BRepArea" to find centroid of each area.
5. My "Curve" component introduces sun angle, with its "End Points".
6. I use "Vector 2Pt" to specify sun-light direction.
7. I want to measure the angle between sun-light and the surface normals, at the position of each component; after generating the centre points, I need the normals of each centre point to get the surface's points' UV, and "Evaluate" the srf at points.
8."Angle" and "Vector" components: I use them in order to evaluate the angle between the sun direction and the srf.
9. I convert this angle to degree by using a "Function" [ to see if the angle is bigger from the max.angle or not...]
10. Function "x,y" gives me boolean data.
11. Data become "Dispatch"ed...
12. Two "Morph" components , each one linked to one part of the "Dispatch" data, generate "closed" and "open" components over the srf.
The result should have been different types of components, based on the surface's curvature, diraction and sun-light direction...
I do not understand where the mistake is in this definition...
Thx in advance1

Component its manage a CSV like a Database, i found that the csv native Python module doesn't work in IronPython cuz its compiled in PythonC (or something like this), so i found a .Net module that can be imported to IronPython to work with CSV file
So Here a
Pseudo Code of my Toughs
1 - Import .net Module.
2 - Read Csv File. by a Path Assigned by interactive Imput.
3 - Identify the Header of The Csv File.
4 - Create a List of the Fields found in the Csv Header for Further (Sorting, Retrieve specific, create relations with others files by fields in commons, etc. etc. (whatever can imagine))
5 - Read the Data of the Csv File
6 - Out put the Attributes of the Header. (simple list of the fields to identify with what we deal for )
7 - Out Put a list of all the Attributes of the Header ( Complete List of the Fields by Rows Found in the Csv File.
8 - Out Put a list of all the Data inside the Csv File in relation with the Point 7.
over here's my thoughts Any Comment or Suggetions for the Component ?
i will be posting a Github for this, to all who want to collaborate with this.
i'm doing this cuz i'm dealing with a lot of amount of data in my Thesis Project, wich its focus on managing Shapes files, and Csv Files of Data that are not in the same dataset, so i need to relationate a lot of things just to develop my examinations techniques about the city.

o it would cause troubles with unfolding and fabricating... that's why I used Extrude point component- it will give you similar result, but all surfaces are planar.. you can control extrusion direction with a tip point in rhino...
2)I changed tagging so every tube has 8 points form list A and 8 points from list B... first number of tag is a number of point within one tube... last number of the tag is order of tubes (I draw a little picture in GH, hope you'll understand)...I think original way of tagging wasn't really usefull.. but you can change tagging by yourself...
3) the definition is really messy, sorry about that, but it's just quite complicated task...
4)if you find some incorrect order of tagging, use the slider that controls Shift List component ... it will shift tagging..
5) if you won't be using this definition or find some better way, pleeeease don't tell me - I'll jump out the window :D ... it took me whole day to make it work :D
6)I can't guarantee you anything- I hope it works, but if not - at least I tried... so check everything (especially order of tags and points) twice before you fabricate it.. or print few tubes and make them paper first..
7)there is a part of original definition, that is not useful anymore.. I left it there, but you can delete it (I called it "UNUSED PARTS OF ORIGINAL FILE")
..good luck
