created surface with sweep and rotate them with number of division. Section curves of 2Railsweep is defined with 3 Point arc and shape is also controlable.
You can change shape by sliding 16 paramteters.
The definition is rather long, hope somebody can modify with more sphiscated manner.

cy of design communication and the control of information-flow are as important as the creativity of ideas. In response to the concurrent digital evolution emerging in the architectural industry world-wide, the Faculty of Architecture at The University of Hong Kong will host a two week intensive summer program named Digital Practice.Led by professors from The University of Hong Kong, as well as invited practitioners with expertise in practice of cutting edge digital techniques, the program offers participants opportunities to experience applications of computational tools during different stages of an architectural project, i.e. concept design, form finding and optimization, delivery, management and communication of design information under the team-based working environment. By learning advanced computational techniques through case studies in the context of Hong Kong, participants are expected to go beyond the conventional perception of technology, considering users and tools as a feedback-based entity instead of a dichotomy. The program, which is taught in English, includes a series of evening lectures related delivered by teaching staff and invited local architects.對於高品質的建築專案,創意之外,專案過程中高效的設計資訊管理和交流成為項目設計深化和實施必不可少的環節。今天,數字化技術不但改變了建築師的繪圖工具,影響了設計的過程,而且提供了工程建造和管理實施的更有效、更高效的手段。針對建築的數位化演進,香港大學建築學院將於2011年暑假期間,在香港大學建築學院舉辦“數位化實踐”國際研習班。在香港大學建築學院教授及有著相關豐富經驗的外聘實踐建築師的指導下,學員將有機會體驗在專案的不同階段(如概念設計、設計形式的生成、優化,設計資訊的管理和交流),如何有效地應用各種運算智慧化技術(從設計的數位化生成和建築資訊類比到物理模型),提升設計實施的品質,增加設計團隊對於方案的控制。我們將挑戰對於“技術”的傳統認知,即相對於使用者它不僅是工具,更是與使用者互動的媒介,二者形成一個有機的合體。研習班期間會安排系列講座,展現數位化技術在實踐工程中的廣泛應用。…

But it seems I have not been clear:
the input values (3,5,7,9,11,13) should be presented in the way of "number slider" parameter. So by increasing the value of the slider from minimum 3, to 5, 7, 9, 13, 15, 17... I should get an output numbers of 0,1,3,4,5,6,7...
So I if choose value 3 on the input "number slider", on the other end, I want 0 as an output.
Or if I choose value 5 on the input "number slider", I want 1 as an output, and so on.
Is this possible?…
4, 3, 7, 7, 7, 8
would need to be
5, 6, 7, 8, 4, 3, 7, 8
ideas?
current workaround (kangaroo dupPt component) removes all duplicates from list, tho does maintain order.
thx…
uld be much better than Rhino at huge mesh collections. I'd personally try free Autodesk Meshmixer and ZBrush first but most designers are more familiar with rendering programs like Maya or 3DS Max. I'm not familiar enough with architecture to suggest a list as only Revit and Sketchup come to mind.
Looking more closely, CAD Exporter is only for 2D curves and points, how silly, and it requires baked geometry in a Rhino layer:
I could write a Python script to export an STL but that would be a large ascii format file instead of binary. Better to use OBJ to retain quad faces, too.
Ah, well, OBJ files are also ascii format when exported from Rhino, so it would be quite easy to make a script to export those directly to disk from Grasshopper. Here is one box, 10X10X20 in size, with quad faces:
# Rhino
o object_1v 10 10 20v 10 10 0v 10 0 20v 10 0 0v 0 10 20v 0 10 0v 0 0 20v 0 0 0f 5 7 3 1f 5 6 8 7f 3 7 8 4f 2 4 8 6f 5 1 2 6f 3 4 2 1
If I have time I'll make a little script to write such OBJ files unless you can find a native Grasshopper plugin for direct OBJ export in full 3D for meshes.…
triangulate my mesh faces thus i was getting 7 points per polygon. 7 outputs needed. It works with 7 outputs even if 3 of them are not being used.
Problem solved!
Thanks so much for your help!

etc.
Group 2 - 1, 6, 11, 16, 21 etc.
Group 3 - 2, 7, 12, 17, 22 etc.
Group 4 - 3, 8, 13, 18, 23 etc.
Group 5 - 4, 9, 14, 19, 24 etc. "
except in data, the branches start at 0, so 'group 1' is branch 0
as for the order of your points, that depends on the input prior sorting...

ep is to understan the logics of what you want to do, in your case, build 4 point surfaces (u also need to know the right direction to build the surfaces). Then you can write an hipotetic list (by hand in a paper) of what you want. In your case the list was (0, 1, 3, 2) (2, 3, 5, 4) (4, 5, 7, 6), etc... if you can imagine building 2 lists, each one with the sequences (0, 2, 4, 6, etcc) and (1, 3, 5, 7, etc..) then you can manage with shift and graft to finally have four lists. A( 0 1 2 3 ...) B (1 3 5 etc..) C(3 5 7 etc..) D (2 4 6 etc..). And to achieve the 2 first lists, you need to get the odd and the pair numbers. The cull pattern does that amazingy well. With a pattern True-False you get de pair numbers, and with the False-True pattern you get de odd numbers.
Hope it was clear enough…
