This definition is the interior of a cluster I created that allows for the culling of duplicate items of any type based on a criteria. In this case, we are culling lines based on their mid point. Use the criteria carefully.

You can reach here for the interactive chart. The COVID-19 outbreak has been the subject of various studies and infographics. One of the most used is the Visual Dashboard by Johns Hopkins CSSE. I created this tool because I wanted to be able to compare statistics between two countries, and I haven’t found any tool […]
I had a dream… for a long time. Be able to easily compare climbs from GPX data. Some years ago, I built a Grasshopper GPX compare tool, with 3D visualization and such… but not useful for the everyday person. So now, thanks to some AI help, I have built a webpage that takes care of […]
A renewed interest in stereotomy, narrowly entwined with digital technologies, has allowed for the recovery and proposal of new techniques and expressions in this building approach. A new classification scheme for stereotomy research allows for the framing of various aspects related to this discipline, including a newly developed fabrication system specially tailored for the wedge-shaped […]
Contrary to most people I meet, I am a Magic Mouse fan. I never had any wrist pain, and I love the 2D touch scroll. Having said that, the mouse comes with some incompatibilities with graphical software packages, namely Blender and Rhino Grasshopper. This post is about the latter. To make the Grasshopper canvas Zoom […]
Researching implies producing lots of PDF’s. Sometimes these PDF’s are exported without much control and become several MB large, which is inconvenient to send out to some else (e-mail) or even to the cloud or a printer. To deal with this issue, a common solution is to down sample the images in your PDF to […]
One of the features I have learned to love in Rhino is the Print to JPG feature. Unfortunately, this is still not available to Rhino 5 for Mac users, but there is a solution. The secret is using the ViewCaptureToFile command in its command line variant, -ViewCaptureToFile. From here, you can type the full path or […]
While using Grasshopper, I’ve been many times confronted with the task of smoothly varying a list of number to achieve some formal effect through number control. Be it a curvature or height control, the problem here deals with easily transforming a list of numbers into another with some of the values smoothly changed. I decided […]
This is my take to the problem of splitting multiple curves in their intersections. There may be other approaches, and there are even components inside plugins that do this, but I wanted to have my own in-house solution so I could understand what is going on. The image on the left shows the original 7 […]
Grasshopper does not seem to have the “pick region” feature from the Rhino Hatch command. I have created such an algorithm, taking advantage of recursive computing provided by the Hoopsnake plugin. You can download the .gh file here: FindRegion.gh The overall idea of the algorithm is to find the curve that has the shortest angle relative […]
A common question I get is: how to replicate a “if then else” statement in Grasshopper. Here is my take. Explanation: if “First Number” is larger than “Second Number”, then output A, else output B. Or: if (FirstNumber>SecondNumber) {A} else {B}
