dont get you, i am saying sleect numbers in range 1 to 10, starting from 1 with a step of 2.
1 to 10 by 3 = 1 4 7 10
1 to 10 by 5 = 1 6
1 to 10 by 1 = 1 to 10 = 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

plit each edge into 3 and join the dots to make 9 triangle on each face.
3. project the points of these triangles out onto a sphere with the same radius as the icosohedron.
maybe you can take the same approach but project out onto your olive shape? I don't think you will end up with only 4 tessellating shapes though....
If the base icosohedron of a geodesic dome is split into 9 triangles on each face you get a geodesic dome with 3 different corner geometries, 2 different triangular panels and 3 different length triangle edges. If the dome was elongated carefully you could probably restrict the resulting components of an olive shaped dome.
This will be a slightly different dome to your Rhombic Enneacontahedron too!…
Hi,
Is there a way of setting the step size of a slider?
For instance if the limits are from 0 to 15 every 3 units, so i get 0,3,6,9,12,15, instead of 0, 1, 2 ...
Thanks
i mean, i want a slider that can do 3 sides, 4 sides, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. for the grids because I dont want to use a fixed grid shape such as square grid (4 sides only).
so the list actualy looks like this:
0 5
1 10
2 15
3 20
4 25
....
Is above possible? and insteed of doing this "a manual way" would it be possible with a function? Sometimes there might be 9 rows sometimes only 7 rows.…
53 → 53 → 63 → 74 → 74 → 84 → 9
As you can see from the above list the connection sequence comes in waves of three, where each group of similar indices on the left is associated with a group of three incrementing indices on the right.
Some combination of Series components will probably generate this list, but it'll only work for the first ring, the second one will need a different connection pattern. It is perhaps better to just encode the integer pairs by hand. But then you cannot change your mind about the number of sides later.…

Dim S As New NurbsSurface
Dim k1 As New Integer Dim k2 As New Integer Dim k3 As New Integer
Dim pt_2 As New point3d Dim pt_3 As New point3d Dim pt_4 As New point3d
k1 = 13 k2 = 14 k3 = 15
For i As Integer = 0 To 7 If k1 > 15 Then k1 = k1 - 15 End If pt_2 = L_pts(k1)
If k2 > 15 Then k2 = k2 - 15 End If pt_3 = L_pts(k2)
If k3 > 15 Then k3 = k3 - 15 End If pt_3 = L_pts(k3)
S = nurbsSurface.CreateFromCorners(centre, pt_2, pt_3, pt_4) TAB.add(S)
k1 = k1 + 3 k2 = k2 + 3 k3 = k3 + 3
Next
A = S
You dont realy need to understand the script but I want to be able to declare a dim as a Surface and on the core creat different surface from 4 pt.
Thanks for your Help,
Best regards,
Renaud Ganière…
