ort and export from the images below and also from the HELP file of DB in attachments (Page 71: Importing Geometric Data; Page 78-80: Import 3 - D CAD Data). In their HELP file, they mention about "import geometric data".
However, regarding the input of schedules, loads, constructions and etc., DB normally uses "Component " and "Template" (Page 29: Templates And Components; Page 591: Templates; Page 533: Components). "Templates" are databases of typical generic data, including Activity templates, Construction templates, Glazing templates, Facade templates, HVAC templates, Location Templates, and etc. "Component " are databases of individual data items (e.g. a construction type, material, window pane).
Both "Component " and "Template" are allowed to be imported and exported by using "Import / Export library data" command (.ddf format - DB Database File; Page 734: Import Components/Templates, Export Components/Templates). DB also allows us to build up our own libraries of templates and components (Page 731: Library Management; Page 733: Template Library Management).
In order to import both geometric information and other information related to schedules, loads, constructions and etc. from GH to BD, we supposed the following two ways:
1. GH(HB+GB) --> gbXML (both geometric and "Component " and "Template" information) --> DB
This is the way we most prefer. We did see information related to schedules, loads, constructions encoded in the gbXML file generated by GB, but still do not know the reason why DB did not take this information (I also mentioned this in Q6 within the gh file). We assume this might because the gbXML file we create encodes the schedules based on a different template / schema than the one DB expects. We also post this question to the DB forum for help.
(http://www.designbuilder.co.uk/component/option,com_forum/Itemid,25/page,viewtopic/p,13755/#13755)
2. GH(HB+GB) --> gbXML (geometric information only) + .ddf ("Component " and "Template" information only) --> DB
If the first way doesn't work and DB only takes geometric information from the gbXML, then we might think of the other way - generating the .ddf files from GH(HB+GB) to pass the schedule, load and construction information to DB.
I was wondering if it is feasible for HB and GB to have this function? And what is your suggestion to achieve this?
In addition, we notice that DB can export XML files (not gbXML), so we are trying to figure out if DB also accepts / reads the XML file. If so, we might be able to convert the gbXML (with both geometric and schedule information) to XML. What do you think about that?
Thank you again for all your help!

r [String Split] in version 0.9.0014)
The [Timer] prompts a component to up date at the set interval. in this case every 1 seconds.
The [Time] param is a placeholder for a time in the same way that a [Number] param can hold real numbers.
By using "Now" as the input to the [Time] param you will get the current time when the param updates. therefore every second it resets to the current time.
The [Text Split] is there to separate the output of [Time] in a string format at every colon ":"
Therefore "Monday, 13-MAY-2013 (11:23:30)" would become:
0 Monday, 13-MAY-2013 (1
1 23
2 30)
The next two components use this to convert it into the current seconds. Because we are after the last item "30)" we can use [List Item] on a reversed list to get the last item.
Now we have to remove the ")" with [Replace String] but we are replacing it with nothing so it disappears.
The Arrow is part of the Sketch Tool Functionality of the canvas.
Lastly the 3 different inputs should go into the three different Inputs of the [Stream Filter]

TB of RAM. I think I'm going to start a GoFundMe campaign to buy one for myself :)
2- The server's cost is about $13 an hour. I get free access to supercomputer through my university and xsede.org because I earned an NSF Honorable mention last March, however, the supercomputers available through both resources are a little complicated for me to use, as opposed to the one available from amazon that has Microsoft server 2012 already installed.
3- I wanted to run 400 annual glare simulations for 400 different views.
4- I tried a to perform annual glare simulation for one view on my Dell XPS that has Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor and 16GB of system memory. The simulation took 2 hours to complete. Radiance parameter ab was set to 6.
5- I wanted to obtain the batch file for each view so I can run them on the server. So I used the fly component to run all 400 simulations and closed the cmd windows, that wasn't bad ( for me at least) because I asked my son to this job for me, he was just glad to help me :)
6- I created one batch file using this cmd command:
dir /s /b *.bat > runall.bat
This created a file with the path to each .bat file. I edited this file in Notepad++ to include the word "start" at the beginning of each line. This was done using the "find and replace" dialogue box.
7- I split my newly created batch file into 3 batch files, each one has about 130 file names and " start" before the file names.
8- installed radiance on my server
9- Ran the first batch file on the server, this started 130 cmd windows performing my simulations, CPU usage was anywhere between 90% to 100% and about 105 GB of RAMs were used.
10. It took about 5 hours to complete all 130 simulations, I expected to run all in 2 hours but can't complain because this would've taken about 260 hours to run on my laptop. After the simulations done I ran the second and then the third batch files ( total of about 15 hours).
11. I got 400 valid dgb files. Couldn't be happier!

you post a screenshot of what the message coming from its readMe! output looks like?2) Close your Grasshopper and Rhino.3) Download "Revo Uninstaller Pro" from here. It is free for first 30 days, which is what we need.4) Right click on the RevoUninProSetup.exe and check if the file is blocked. If it is, unblock it.5) Run the RevoUninProSetup.exe file and install "Revo Uninstaller Pro".6) Uninstall "MapWinGIS" with "Revo Uninstaller Pro". It is important that "Revo Uninstaller Pro" deletes not only files from MapWinGIS installation folder, but also all other leftovers (as registry inputs). Here is a small tutorial on how to do that. Watch it from 6:10 till the end.7) Restart your PC8) When your Windows boots up, make sure that you are logged in as Administrator!9) In your Start menu's search box type: "UAC", which will find your User Account Control Settings. Click on it, and a new window will open. Set the bar on the left to "Never notify".10) Turn off your Windows Firewall.11) Then turn off your custom Firewall (in case you have another one, besides standard Windows Firewall).12) Completely turn off your Antivirus.13) Download again the MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe.exe file from here.14) Right click on the MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe file and see if it is blocked. If it is, unblock it.15) Right click on MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe file and choose: "Run as"... Administrator.16) One the installation preparation steps start, choose "Full installation". Wait for the MapWinGIS installation to finish.17) Right-click on "Rhino 5" icon and then choose: "Run as administrator".18) Open the the ironpython_admin.gh file again, and again post a screenshot of the message coming from its readMe! output.19) Drop the "Gismo Gismo" component to Grasshopper canvas. Post a screenshot of the message coming out from its readMe! output.
So we will need in total three screenshots of the readMe! output messages.
Thank you once again for being patient, and sorry for the large number of steps.…

hem. Now I need to search through the original points that comprise the voronoi diagram and replace them with the new averaged points. I need to do this while still preserving the logic of the old data tree which is comprised of {i}j values. In other words each point is grouped into a vornoi cell so that the cells can be created with the polyline component
I believe I have a relatively simple solution, but need help create a python script that searches and replaces values within a data tree.See the psuedo code below:
Psuedo-Code:
For each item(i) in Data tree B (list of index values points to be replaced grouped into a data tree corresponding to the new point) find the corresponding integer in Data tree C (list of points grouped around {i;j} values)Then replace the integer in Data Tree C with the key value (the data tree path) that corresponds to the item from Data tree B that is replacing the item from Data tree CFor example:Data Tree B{14}(0)2(1)3(2)6(3)11(4)13(5)14Data Tree C{0;1}(0)2(1)3(2)6Output:Data Tree {0;1}(0){14}(1){14}(2){14}
List A - Single point (New Point) with Data Tree/Key value corresponding to group of points it will replace ( List B)
List B-list of index values of flattened voronoi point list with Data Tree/Key Value corresponding to List A - in other words these are all the points I need to replace with the point in List A
List C-list of index values of flattened voronoi point list with Data Tree/Key Value corresponding to {i}j values necessary to re-create voronoi cells with the polyline component
Once this is done I can use the Output and the new Points in List A to replace the set of old points in the original voronoi diagram with the new set up reduced points.
If there is another way to achieve the goal of eliminating small edges of a vorononi diagram, I'm open to suggestions.
