nite a zillion of "solids" (closed polysurfaces in Rhino speech) you need a decent solid CAD app. Rhino is a surface modeller ... meaning that you should narrow your search towards the right girl.
3. Personally I work with Microstation (same 3d core engine as Siemens/NX [ParaSolids]) and CATIA/NX. The difference in speed for doing things like these ... well ... find a friend who works with any of these and experience it first hand. …
d fly with a Porsche flat six).
2. Added a double (nested) Anemone thing (and the Mateusz version) and some comments.
3. Added a stupid "arm maker" cluster ... primitive/ugly/pointless - see one prototype attached about how to do it (you'll need a top feature driven CAD app for this - notice the Teflon low friction ring).
4. In order to "adapt" the cluster arm you need some "stretch" capability (orient, scale et all are the 1st step). Of course putting the cluster into the 2*loop is the art of pointless (Mateusz misinterpreted my bitter comments as regards the "slow" thing, I had absolutely no intension to recreate "live" the arm).

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.

BIM is NOT a parametric process at least having in mind graphical editors the likes of GH (or stuff the likes of Generative Components): it's a holistic data management approach. Some concepts used in BIM apps (for instance in AECOSim etc) the likes of "walls"/"openings" etc are "parametric" in the sense that allow auto perforation of this with that. On the other hand AECOSim is feature driven (since Microstation works in that "mode" as well) ... a thing that complex things even more with regard what is actually "parametric" and what not.
BIM is as good as the meta data structure is (especially the spec related aspect - Goggle MasterFormat and the likes). BIM AEC apps are notoriously incapable to work (without a lot of lines of code) with proper RDBMS. On the other hand Bentley Systems ProjectWise ... well ... but that's another animal (by no means a topic for the inexperienced).
In descending order or importance a contemporary AEC practice should use:
1. A general information "controller" like ProjectWise (who said/did what/when/why).
2. A Specs (say CSI - not the TV soap opera) management app.
3. Several Meta data RDBMS.
4. A BIM suite of apps.
5. Optionally some parametric thingy.
PS: For AEC ... when inviting the parametric thingy to the party you have only 2 options:
ProjectWise + AECOSim + Generative Ciomponents (my choice).
?? + Revit + Dynamo.

formance issue.
Reasons why I don't want to change the Integer parameter:
1) what about Number, and String, and Boolean, and Point, and Vector, and Line... should they also display the value? Or is the integer parameter supposed to be different from all the others?
2) what if you have multiple values inside a parameter. Should it grow to display them all? Should it grow to display only the first ten? Should it automatically switch to Icon-display?
3) would value display be a fourth kind of display type (alongside Name, Icon and App-default)?

2. Even cooler would be to make some kind of presentation preview. (GH disappears, rhino goes to fullscreen mode with somehow integrated remote panel). I like to watch apps/scripts made with processing, where sliders are really minimalistic.
3. Presentation preview may be optionally locked with password.
I realize that GH isnt processing, but this would be nice addition.

some weird engine, you know, he he) IS NOT like designing plain vanilla AEC things.
Therefore features/calculation methods/capabilities as found in MCAD apps (considered off topic by many in our trade) are mandatory for certain types of designs.
Anyway and if we forget FEA stuff, currently I have 3 C# goals:
(1) master the art of controlling the placement of existed blocks in GH defined topology(done),
(2) master the art of baking blocks(done) and
(3) master the art of baking heavily nested blocks that NX/Catia can understand (progress is slow).
