KangaMark Score: 107PC model: DELL PRECISION T1600Operating system: Windows 7 Professional x 64Processor model and speed: Intel Xeon E3 1245 @ 3.30GHzAmount and speed of RAM: 8 GB DDR3 -1333Mhz
byte-accuracy red, green, blue channels) = 27 bytes. More likely 28 bytes as colours are probably stored as 32-bit integers, allowing for an unused alpha channel.
28 * 800,000 equals roughly 22 megabytes, which is way down from 9 gigabytes. That's a 400 fold memory overhead, which is pretty hefty.
Grasshopper stores points as instances of classes, so on 64-bit systems it actually takes 64+64+3*8 = 152 bytes per point*, which adds up to 122MB, still way less than 9GB. It would be interesting to know where all the memory goes...
* Grasshopper points also store reference data, in case they come from the Rhino document. This data will not exist, but even so it will require 64-bits of storage.…

variables - all doubles. I call them pc, max, min. The expression is very simple: (pc*(max-min))+min I tried either with the F(x)3 component or the F(x)n with 3 inputs, the expression editor in F(x)n gives me the warning "invalid, expected ( instead of -"I then tried naming the variables x,y,z and it seems to work with either component... so, what am I not understanding here? Thanks for any light you can shed... --Mitch…

. They only exist on anticlastic surfaces. On a minimal surface, they lie at 45° to the PC-lines (you can set the angle with David's script).
For any other anticlastic surface, there is a simple calculation, which returns the angle 'alpha' between PC-direction and A-direction. I implemented this using your script.
Have you come across any other tool, which draws PC-Lines more accurately and/or on meshes?
I would be very interested!
Cheers,
Eike
