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

rt, setup material qualities and run it. It calculates for a few seconds then it crashes Rhino. I have not done any work in the grasshopper version. I found that if I turn OFF ray tracing completely it will run to an answer. I have attached my test file. This is as far as I have gotten with learning Pachyderm.
Computer #2- On my other PC when I try to load Pachyderm into the system it does not appear in Rhino and Grasshopper does not load. I have to un-install Pachyderm from the Control Panel to get Grasshopper to even work. I have tried un-installing Rhino completely, re-installing it, then installing Pachyderm to no avail. Same problem remains. Is there some kind of a previous residual from a previous Pachyderm installation that is preventing it from installing properly? I have spent hours on this single problem and am flummoxed.…
screen they are harder to distinguish.
The main issue is with software developers having to make their application aware that the user might change the scale setting in Windows to make things appear bigger. When this setting is changed some things might change size, like fonts and forms, but other elements might not. If the developer didn't account for this he might set a form element in pixel size unaware that when this setting is changed, the text inside the element will scale, clipping it.
In Mac OS the problem is exactly the same. They can solve it more easily because they only have to support 2 types of resolutions, which one is exactly twice as big as the previous one, so you just have to scale everything 2x (1 pixel becomes 4), just like what i did in my previous post. The disadvantage of this is that you loose pixel density on older software. Windows might be installed in screens with many different resolutions so doing this might not be a good idea since scaling by other than whole numbers will make things look blurry. Cleartype already doesn't work that well even just scaling exactly 2x.…

t, and it worked great!I can already see some of the nice benefits of its usage. With the Google Earth component, you made a quite a remarkable addition to the Ladybug set of components! Keep up this great work!
Just as a mention: I am attaching a screenshot of two new components:The first one: "Terrain analysis" performs a couple of terrain analysis types, and the second one: "Flow paths" performing the water flow analysis.Screenshot example of both is given below:
It would be nice if your Terrain Generator component could benefit from using these two new ones.In order to do that, Terrain Generator would have to output the terrain in a form of surface as well. My modest advice would be to add the "type_" input, which will determine whether the "terrain" output is a mesh, or a surface. This will make it consistent with Terrain Generator 2 component.To create the terrain surface from a grid of points, use the NurbsSurface.CreateThroughPoints method:
import Rhino as rcuDegree = vDegree = 3uClosed = vClosed = FalseterrainSurface = rc.Geometry.NurbsSurface.CreateThroughPoints(pts, numberOfPtsIn_vDirection, numberOfPtsIn_uDirection, uDegree, vDegree, uClosed, vClosed)
Of course this is just a suggestion, I am not imposing anything.…
Singapore
DESCRIPTION : Two seemingly contrasting ideas combined will turn into something remarkably new. This resulted in the idea of Digital Craftsmanship – connecting the digital technology with artisans’ craftsmanship. Singapore is uniquely positioned to benefit from both – the latest technology in digital fabrication, as well as the beautiful and rich culture of ASEAN craftsmanship in countries like Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam. The NUS digital fabrication in architecture studio introduces advanced design to fabrication flow, such as 3D modeling, simulation, digital fabrication and physical assembly and testing. We discover existence of data flow distinguishes digital and conventional craftsmanship, prolonging the interface between human and object. The result is very encouraging –the Digital Craftsmanship approach could lead innovative yet regionally relevant contemporary architectural design, complex yet controlled functional geometry and aesthetics. We hope this exhibition could raise our awareness about preserving the precious wisdom of traditional craftsmanship alongside with advanced fabrication technologies in architecture.
OPENING : 24 August 2012, 7pm – 9pm, RSVP to Yi Hui (dfabstudio@gmail.com) EXHIBITION : 25 – 28 August 2012 (10 am – 9 pm, daily, free admission) VENUE : Promenade, Level 8, National Library Building, 100 Victoria Street, Singapore

buildings_trees_streets.gh or color_the_buildings.gh. I think the reason why you had upper problem may have been fixed.
2) Ok, glad it worked! With my prehistoric PC, I sometimes need to leave it turned on all night long so that OSM 3D component can create buildings over a couple of hours.
3) I checked the location now. It seems that Paris in general is very poorly documented in openstreetmap.org when it comes to 3d data (having some of the following keys: height, min_height, building:levels...). But maybe this may be able to be somewhat improved by using "randomHeightRange_" input of "OSM 3D". The way you are doing it now manually with random extruding shapes. Still I may need your help on this, with testing.…

nstalling of 3 previous versions of Ladybird and Honeybee but nothing different happened. This was all happening on a desktop PC running windows 10 and with a wired connection to the internet router (via a switch). I then tried installing Ladybug and Honeybee on a MacBook Pro running Windows 7 on bootcamp. This computer was wirellesly connected to the same router. The installation of the latest version was very smooth and all the right files of the right sizes appeared without any problem on the first import of Honeybee-Honeybee. I then copied the files over to the other computer. Solved.
1. good thing I didn't know that as I wouldn't have kept on trying to resolve it!
2. Ok, sticking with it - besides I would hate miss out on such a major release!
3. Makes sense.
4. ok, I thought that that was the main file because of the EP in the title - I now have them both anyway.
5. Now that you say this when I click on the file in github and download it from the view raw link then I do get the right file size. But when I have been trying to download it directly from the root folder (i.e.Honeybee/resources) with "save link as" then I get the 36kB. Could it be that Honeybee_Honeybee was doing something similar?
Many thanks again to both of you - great work out there!
best,
Alex…

t to work. I was getting an error message on the OSMshapes components. I searched the forums and followed these steps:Close your Grasshopper and Rhino.2) Restart your PC3) When it boots up again, in your Start menu's search box type: "UAC". Click on it, and a new User Account Control Settings window will open. Set the bar on the left to "Never notify".4) Completely turn off your Antivirus.5) Check once again if your access control to the C:\MapWinGIS_installation_folder\gdal-data\osmconf.ini file is still set to the values you previously reported in this post.6) Right-click on "Rhino 5" icon and then choose: "Run as administrator".7) When Rhino boots up, run Grasshopper, and open the newest create_3dbuildings_trees_streets.gh file from here.This got the script to work and eliminated all of the error messages. The thing is... The omsconfig file's settings switch back after a some time passes, so I have to keep going back to change them. Also If I don't right click on rhino and choose "open as an adminstrator" the script won't work. I'll get those same error messages when I open Rhino normally. I'm also not super comfortable turning off my antivirus software during the time that I am working.Are there more permanant solutions that I can employ without going through these steps every time?
Thanks,
Robert…
