WooJae’s Blog Rhino Curve Based Modeling using curves as a basis for generating 3d geometry Introduction Curves as basis for geometry In the previous workshop we worked with quite a straightforward method of generating 3D geometry. If you look at industries where aesthetic design plays a mayor role like industrial design and the car industry you will see that they often use a different type of geometry which supports the required form freedom. Accuracy of the geometry ( important for manufacturing) The shapes it can generate The ability to adjust the shape The workflow of generating the shapes. Due to its accurate mathematical description of even the most complex shapes it can be used in design and manufacturing. The form freedom is quite extensive. There are range of tools available to effectively adjust the geometry and to support formal exploration Because the geometry is based on curves , the workflow will be completely different from the CSG workflow.

What is RhinoCommon? with C#, VB Overview by Steve Baer This guide gives an overview of RhinoCommon. RhinoCommon is the cross-platform .NET plugin SDK available for: Rhino 5 for Windows (both 32 and 64-bit versions) Rhino 5 for Mac Rhino.Python scripting Grasshopper The term common is meant to be just that: an SDK that can be used across Rhino platforms. Inside RhinoCommon RhinoCommon is composed of the following pieces. RhinoCommon.dll - This is a pure .NET DLL that plugins can reference and use to work with Rhino. RhinoCommon on macOS is executed through an embedded Mono framework. Rhino uses RhinoCommon All .NET plugins that ship with Rhino 5 for Windows and Rhino 5 for Mac, including the Python interpreter, reference RhinoCommon. In 2011, Grasshopper was rewritten using RhinoCommon. The Python script engine is entirely based on RhinoCommon. RhinoCommon versions RhinoCommon plug-ins will only load in the same service release or greater of Rhino that the plug-in was built against. What are Mono and Xamarin?

C# Tutorials (C#) This documentation is archived and is not being maintained. The C# tutorials provide an overview of the basics of the language and identify important language features. Each tutorial includes one or more sample programs. The tutorials discuss the sample code plus provide additional background information.

Your First Plugin (Windows) with C# Getting Started by Dan Belcher This guide walks you through your first plugin for Rhino for Windows using RhinoCommon and Visual Studio. It is presumed you already have the necessary tools installed and are ready to go. HelloRhinoCommon We will use the RhinoCommon Templates to create a new, basic, command plugin called HelloRhinoCommon. If you are familiar with Visual Studio, these step-by-step instructions may be overly detailed for you. We are presuming you have never used Visual Studio before, so we’ll go through this one step at a time. File New If you have not done so already, launch Visual Studio (for the purposes of this guide, we are using Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition and C#). Boilerplate Build Before we do anything, let’s build and run HelloRhinoCommon to make sure everything is working as expected. Plugin Anatomy Use the Solution Explorer to expand the Solution (.sln) so that it looks like this… Note: Depending on your edition of Visual Studio, it may look slightly different.

Iteration in Grasshopper (Without scripting) « Heumann Design/Tech Lately I have been experimenting with iteration in Grasshopper. Iteration is often thought to be synonymous with the computer programming concept of a loop, but while the concepts are related, the definition of iteration I will use requires that the results of one iteration are used as the starting point for the next iteration. A loop can simply be a way to apply the same operation to a list of elements (much like processing multiple values with a component in grasshopper), but it is an iterative loop if the results from one step are used in the calculation of the next step (something grasshopper does not directly do.) This concept is also tightly linked with the concept of recursion. Achieving either iteration or recursion in Grasshopper would seem to require the use of scripting. What use would iteration be in Grasshopper? Frequently in these iterative cases, we want the results of all the steps together in one place. Example 3: Repeat Transform Example 4: Sierpinski Triangle Like this:

Architectural Watercolors by Sunga Park | e-MORFES Harrods, London Sunga Park works in South Korea as a mural wallpaper designer. Her architectural watercolors selection features buildings from cities around the world, including London, Paris, Busan, Venice, and Oxford.

Data trees and C# in Grasshopper - James Ramsden Understanding how Grasshopper handles data is crucial for taking full advantage of GH’s capabilities. For collections of data, they can either be in the form of lists or trees. A list is a collection of items of data, in a particular order, but with no hierarchical structure. The component in the top-right is the param viewer. The ‘N’ denotes a list with N items. A tree is any data structure in GH with multiple branches. Now, let’s make a grid of points. Here, we have cleverly grafted the Y input to coerce Grasshopper into giving us 25 points for our list of 5 numbers. What’s happened here is that Grasshopper has created 5 branches. We can verify this using the param viewer. Trees can be created and manipulated in C# components too. The data we are saving, such as a Point3d or an integerThe path we are saving to The path is declared as a list of numbers denoting the sequence of the branches needed to access the list we are interested in. GH_Path pth = new GH_Path(i,j) Setting up a tree
