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).
be the Force (the dark option) with you all.…
sites the likes of Code Project etc etc) that may fit to your workflow/goals. Also the available literature/printed manuals/e-manuals/books etc etc.
3. Take into account the quality of the available editors (like VS etc etc). That said the "build-in" GH editor is a bit of a crap (but it's OK for smallish/not complex coding).
4. Most importantly: // computing is the holly grail these days (and it would become the standard in the years to come: either via trad CPU cores or via CUDA/Tesla type of stuff)... thus take into account ... well ... the obvious.
BTW: If 1 is true and there's some workflow around that involves many apps ... try to write code that is as "GH neutral" as possible.…
ystem so screen objects get scaled properly:

The tweak requires adding a line to the Registry and then adding a text file named <application exe file name>.exe.manifest to each directory containing the executable program you want to have re-scaled. The contents of the manifest.txt file are shown here:

Overall this looks pretty simple to do. The feedback seems to all be positive. Looks like it's time to get out the old checkbook.....…
to control which part is allowed to connect to other parts and how. We will first look at the basics of defining rules, and then how to use the rule generator to create them automatically. Finally we will look at how to use connection types to allow more control on the final aggregation.

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.

imply lets you communicate with the chip in real time with other peripherals. In my case, I'm using the Xbox Kinect to read visual movements, assign a point ID to something like the left and right hand, translate its x-coordinate into a number, and have that number move a robotic arm servo. Sorry if this sounds like your upcoming robotic apocalypse.
My problem is that because my hand is always moving, it is continually reading the data in real time and crashing Arduino because it is continually processing the rotational distance (in degrees between 0-179). For example, if my hand was moving from 1 to 50 degrees, it's computing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ..etc instead of 1 and 50 as two separate states.
Is there a way to have a component refresh its value in a certain interval? This would mean it could read my hand at different intervals and print a value at timed increments instead of doing it all in real time. A simple practice exercise would be to create a random component and have the component refresh so that every 1 second or so it would produce a different number. The app is essentially refreshing. I thought the Timer component worked, but I misunderstood what it's used for, and I don't think it does what I intend it to do.
I've attached some pictures to show what I'm attempting.
And a file to recreate the problem with a different instance.
Thanks so much for your help! …
