e point in each pair that has the lowest Z value (then later the highest Z)... The problem is the intersections are not returned sorted by Z, sometimes the lower point is first in the list, sometimes last. So I need to sort those pairs of points by Z value.I noticed the sort points component does not have any inputs for sort criteria... RhinoScript SortPoints allows you to sort by:
blnOrder
Optional. Number. The component sort order, where:
Value
Component Sort Order
0 (default)
X, Y, Z
1
X, Z, Y
2
Y, X, Z
3
Y, Z, X
4
Z, X, Y
5
Z, Y, X
Will we get something like this in GH? For now I think I can manage to analyze the Z for each and re-order the points, but a more comprehensive point sorting tool might be nice... no? Or did I miss something obvious? --Thx, --Mitch…
works joyfully if you want to change parameters and generate screen captures and planning to do a lot of them. You can of course generate the file name dynamically referring to the parameters you gave to the script, so that you have meaningful file names.
The example below will generate two captures at J:\Temp\001_top,jpg and J:\Temp\001_front,jpg both at 600X600 px in ghosted mode.
The instructions are as follows: (if you open the VB code by double clicking you will see it)
' Note1: The script is actually calling Rhino commands.
' Note2: Remember you have to draw something and is selectable for the script to function. The script uses _SelAll then _Zoom _Selected
' Note3: After you toggle blnSave to True, a new viewport will popup, be patient while Rhino work, and wait for that viewport to disappear befor clicking on anything.
' Note4: The component is not stable if you try to mouse click on anywhere while the saving process is running. Some stupid move may crash your programme, save RH and GH files before using this component.
' FileName : String Input = Supply with the path and file name without ".jpg" extension : e.g.: "C:\Temp\001" (Without the quotes)
' blnSave : Boolean Input = Saves when toggles to True (Remember to toggle back to False after use, otherwise the script will re-run itself during next update)
' Resolution_width : Integer Input = Resolution for the captured image
' Resolution_height : Integer Input = well...
' TopYea : Boolean Input = Toggles if the Top View is captured (Default is False if not connected)
' FrontYea : Boolean Input = Toggles if the Front View is captured (Default is False if not connected)
' ...Yea : Boolean Input = Toggles if the corresponding View is captured (Default is False if not connected)
' DisplayMode : Integer Input(0-4) = Sets the display Mode 0:Shaded 1:Wireframe 2:Rendered 3:Ghosted 4:XRay Default:Shaded
I remember I took some code from somewhere but I forgot exactly the source, (if someone could remind me I would love to cite) I rewrite most of them though. But the attribution header in the code still remains there and now it seems a bit interesting to see the family tree:

nition. Using RenderAnimation component from http://www.giuliopiacentino.com/grasshopper-tools/, I could do all of above except for the Toon material part.
I have found a post regarding same matter ( http://www.grasshopper3d.com/forum/topics/how-to-add-materials-to-material-table ), but since I am not very familiar with scripts, this is what I think his definition does. Correct me if I am wrong.
Since Rhino Vray only supports Toon environment per material (unlike Max Vray has global override feature),
1. import toon material from Rhino material editor
2. add colors to the toon material and make new toon materials with color (as many as needed)
3. import that new materials back into grasshopper
4. match them with designated geometries and render. (RenderAnimation component by Giulio does this job) Here is the final work he did : http://vimeo.com/34728433
Grasshopper + Vray from Marc Syp on Vimeo.
I am using rhino 4 with vray 1.5.
I have uploaded my definition, simple definition that transforms box height along with color as frame advances. The definition works but toon effect is not there.…
case for sure (started by Giorgio a couple of days before). Ive got involved because I exploit ways to "relax" shapes on nurbs (say patterns created by Lunchbox or "manually) without using any kind of mesh (more explanations soon).
Here's 5 test cases (SDK appears that doesn't have some "thicken surface" thing ... thus the algo that finds the "whole" shapes is rather naive) VS 2 Kangaroo "methods" and the why bother (he he) option as well.
If the goal is to "fit" these shapes within the nurbs ... does it work so far? No I'm afraid (appears that "springs" used are not the proper ones - or [Kangaroo1 option] the lines that pull should been originated from valance 2 points only)
Tricky points:
1. Internalize appears having a variety of serious issues (see Input inside definition) - Load Rhino file first (but even so ...).
2. Pull to surface is deactivated - this is not the issue here (and it's very slow).
3. Since Starling/WB alter the "curves - points" related order
the issue here (Pull points to curves) is to correspond apples to apples:
and that's what Anemone does:
From chaos :
to order:
this means that prior activating Kangaroo you should double click to the Anemone start component in order to "sort" properly the curves.
But .. fact is that results are pathetic:
more soon
best, Peter…

The picture below shows the two question.
Question One I must use data dam, or the component can't batch deal the brep. I don't know why, I have You can give me a solution to make it working normal not using the data dam
Question Two I can not uset the Button component, If I use it, the gh canvas will die with some mouse event--. I have see this problem before in this forum,but there is no solution and explain. I want to know why and How to solve it.
I don't know if I have made my question clear,if not give a message. Thank you! Thank you all.

y (movement, protection, temperature regulation) but also the evolution of cultural expression precisely by exceeding the purely indexical performative relations. Designing not only for the needs but for the desires.
Computational couture looks at the creation of exclusive custom-fitted clothing (typical of haute couture) through the lens of a systemic approach, extending the sartorial techniques with 3D modeling and computation-based approaches developed in Rhinoceros and the visual programming environment Grasshopper.
Aim of the workshop is to exert, infuse and expand the sartorial sensibilities to body proportions and dress making into an algorithmic approach that loops through design and fabrication by means of laser cutting and 3d printing for the design and production of a garment. Participants will be divided in teams focusing on specific aspects of the garment related to the production technique (laser cutting or 3D printing).

Other than that:
1. Tensegrity is a "static" thingy in the sense that you use some module (let's call it "mode") and repeat. Creating some code that does INVENT new modes for T trusses (Pulitzer/EMMY/Nobel on sight, he he) ... I would strongly suggest to forget that THIS VERY MOMENT.
2. Applying some T "mode" on something (see my examples in the above thread where I use surfaces for the T nodes) is another animal. If you intend to use Kangaroo to "relax" that something (NOT the T itself) well ... you can do it but has nothing to do with T.
3. The Kangaroo def provided is a "way" to test the "rigidity" of the T in use. It's a "post-processing" thing NOT a T solving thing.
4. I have a terrible feeling: are you saying that (a) without knowing a thing (or two) from C#, (b) without knowing K1/K2, (c) with a limited GH experience ... your goal is to write down from scratch a FEA ("Femap") thingy that ALSO does node "relaxation" ? If so ... well ... what about sky diving (without parachute) or that classic Russian roulette "game"?
PS: shown double tetra (classic) and XFrames (classic) T trusses applied in open and closed surfaces.
But of course these are abstract stupid "arrangements" utterly out of question in real-life: read CAREFULLY the discussion in the thread provided above AND also study the 3dPDF attached (with a system out of many available) in order to get the gist about what real-life means (Note: EVEN if no real-parts are used ... the node calculation is different from the abstract "star" connections pictured above - by "star" I mean that cables meet at a single point in space without any "offset" etc etc).

hat differ in shapes, sizes and height the facade would be a mess. Some spaces need some light while other can't have any. I would like to have full freedom of creation inside the building, to make it as functional as possible. Thats why i decided the parametric "skin" solution would be best. Since the location has industrial past (factories made of brick) i decided that brick would give interesting result.
I tried creating the definition on my own but since i lack skill in GH i got some problems (especially multiplication of bricks and the diffrence between each "level" (half a brick on y axis) caused problems for me.
I post my simple sketch explaining the idea of definition i would like to create (sorry about quality):
1 - Brep - I would like to use 25x12x6cm (classic brick) but as well experiment with diffrent shapes - like the one on the right with hole inside - that would give more light. Thats why i think the best solution would be using brep for this definition.
2- Multiplication - biggest problem for me - I don't know how tall the wall would be, what will be the final shape of Brep (brick) and that's why i would like to manipulate this with sliders as well. All the walls are flat (maybe it would be easier to use surface?). As i managed to multiply the bricks easy way i don't know how to gain control over height of the wall - for example that it is 30 bricks high, but has each second row moved on x axis by the distance of 1/2 brick. I tried using Series but with no success. Could you help me with that please?
3 - Rotation - i would like to use image sampler for that so i can "paint" where i want more sun and where i dont need it at all (black and white). The rotation has to be limited to 180 degrees as well. Obviously i didn't get here yet, but i never used image sampler so if you could give me some advice how to use component and how to create such images i would be really grateful.
4 - More of a concept thing - since the connection angles differ from 90 degrees i will have to figure out how to connect the parts of the wall at sides ;).
I would like to ask you for help with the defintion, since i am totally stuck at step 2. I post what i came up with so far. Thank you for your time and help!
PS. I post an image that is pretty similar to one of options i would like to check for my building.
