add another "trivial" constrain to the puzzle (for instance the PC sheets are 1.2*2.2m > meaning the obvious). This is addressable ONLY via the black bill (don't even think to use GH components for solving similar stuff).
3. One-off nodes are probably OK BUT for larger scales you'll need MERO type of approach > meaning assembly/component concepts > meaning dealing with instance Rhino definitions: blocks in plain English (don't even think to use GH components for solving similar stuff).
4. "Engulfing" type of strut extrusions are rather the best option (use aluminum in this case) > meaning profiles that can "wrap" the triangle content edge (be that "paper" or Lexan/PC).
5. The whole thing appears "easy" but on a pro level is rather quite challenging and obviously totally undo able without the black pill.
6. So: mesh relaxation <> adapter topology matters <> pack issues <> component design <> triangle content design <> cost <> you named it (for <> read "interact").
Such a "simple" case ... eh? …
in the script I posted in an other discussion. The trick is to transform x y z in 2 angles and one radius. Z is transformed in an angle to place point on the big torus radius. X y are transformed in radius angle to place point on little radius of torus.

e any simple way of getting my hands on the values of the parameters for the Pareto-front configurations ? For the moment I'm dealing with them by Copy-Pasting the list of data on a panel...
2. The data is given like a % of the parameters' sliders. Can't we get the slider values directly ?
3. Is there an easy way to view the shapes on Rhino while "travelling" on the Pareto-front ? I was thinking of clicking on the Octopus Pareto-front shape (line or surface) while having the corresponding parameters configurations (thus shape) on Grasshopper (and Rhino).
4. Finally, is it just my PC or why can't we see the shapes evolving while the algorithms is processing ?
Those features might be coming in the next versions of Octopus but still, if you have any idea of how you would deal with my questions for now...
Thanks in advance

hot you posted suggests, that "Terrain Generator" tried two times to download the terrain file from opentopography.org, and it failed to do that both times.As the opentopography.org servers are working, the problem may be with your PC. It may for some reason blocking the "Terrain Generator" component from downloading the terrain file.Can you please try these steps:1) Close your Grasshopper and Rhino.2) Restart your PC3) When it boots up again, 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".4) Turn off your Windows Firewall.5) Then turn off your custom Firewall (in case you have another one, besides standard Windows Firewall).6) Then completely turn off your Antivirus.7) Right-click on "Rhino 5" icon and then choose: "Run as administrator".8) When Rhino boots up, run Grasshopper, and open the newest analyse_terrain.gh file from here. Do not increase the radius_ input. Try running it with the default radius: 600 meters.
After these steps, are there any warning messages with your "Terrain Generator" component?…

imilar topic with a Windows 10 user, which successfully fixed this issue.If you are tiny little patient, I think we can try the same steps in your Windows 7 case.For start, try these three steps:1) Close Rhino. Restart your PC. 2) Once the PC boots up, double click on the "regMapWinGIS.cmd" file in "MapWinGIS" installation folder.3) When it closes the Command Prompt window it opened, try running Rhino, Grasshopper and drop the "Gismo Gismo" component on the canvas (Grasshopper working area).If this does not help (you get the same COM class factory CLSID error message coming out from the "Gismo Gismo" component), then try the following steps, one by one:
1) Close Grasshopper and Rhino2) Run the Revo Uninstaller Pro and uninstall your MapWinGIS application along with removing all the leftovers from the registry. You can download 30 days trial version of it from here. Here is a youtube example of a bit older Revo Uninstaller. But the important part is that is shows how registry leftovers are removed.3) Restart your PC, and once it boots again, make sure that you are logged in as an Adminstrator!4) 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".5) Turn off your Antivirus, which ever it is.6) Download the 64 bit version of v4.9.4.2 MapWinGIS.7) Right click on downloaded MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe file, and choose "Properties". If there is "Unblock" button click on it, and then click on "OK". If there is no "Unblock" button, just click on "OK".8) Left double click on MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe file and install it to "C:\dev\MapWinGIS" folder. Choose "Full installation" during installation process!9) In your Start menu's search box type: "CMD". Once the "Command prompt" appears do not left click on it! Instead right click on it, and choose "Run as Administrator".10) A command prompt window will open. Type the following command:
"your_regsvr32_folder_path\regsvr32.exe" /u /s c:\dev\mapwingis\mapwingis.ocx
If command does not result in an error message, then type this one afterwards:
"your_regsvr32_folder_path\regsvr32.exe" /s c:\dev\mapwingis\mapwingis.ocx
11) If no error appeared again, then open your Rhino and Grasshopper and check what "Gismo Gismo" component prints from its "readMe!" output.If errors appeared, please post their screenshots. Thank you in advance.
Please accept my apologies for the large number of steps. Some of them are quite simple actually (click on this, download that...).…

f.
Then the weird thing happened: when i linked a number slider (with a number between 1-12) to _month of the sunpath component, it took like 4 mins to process it, which used to be less than 1 sec. And if i linked a series component to it, everything would be fine... (I didnt even link sunpath to any other thing) So i tried work with series but set count to 1, and this made me another 4 mins to wait... I'm OK with this cuz i dont change month so often, but if i changed the hour, it seems recompute all the things around, so for everytime i want to change it, another 4 mins to go...
I was starting thinking about maybe some files were damaged when my pc crashed, so i deleted all the files and re-installed them for the rar downloaded, still the same. I checked my RAMs to see if there was any problem, nope.
My grasshopper version is 0.9.0076, my processor is i7-3770K@3.5ghz, 16gb DDR3 for RAM. The epw file i'm using is FRA_Paris.Orly.071490_IWEC.epw
Could anyone pls tell me what might be wrong here?
Thanks!!!
Best…
e point, and then sum them.
But I have never crossed onto example like this - where anchor points are fixed but vector directions do not match.
Basically I was hoping Grasshopper can automatically sum two vectors.
P.S.
about the not being able to open the file issue:
Maybe it's because I am using an old AMD processor and PC:
AMD Athlon 1.8 GHZ, 512 RAM DDR, Ge Force 2 MX 400, Windows XP SP3
I already had problems with some other Rhino plugins like Scan and Solve, which is impossible to be installed on my PC configuration.…
e is the important part of the script:
Rhino.Display.RhinoView rv = (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(view)) ?
doc.Views.ActiveView :
doc.Views.Find(view, false);
if(rv==null)
return;
rv.CaptureToBitmap(false, true, false).Save(filepath, format);
