I updatet my Rhino8 from 8.24.25.281.15002 to 8.25.25314.11002 on mac.
Since the update the sweep1 component in grasshopper is extruding in the opposite direction. The bug happened on two different computers with the latest update and it didn’t appeared on a computer with older Rhino Versions like 8.24.
Attached is a screenshot of the file opened in Rhino 8.25. Also the two files.
hope you guys can fix it for the next update or show me that I’m wrong
For the extruding sweep start at starting point and extrudes along curve to endpoint. Giving the cylinder you showed.
A simple flip curve is enough to let it work in the other direction.
Hi @LOMA,
This was broken in Rhino 8 sr25 release. Grasshopper Sweep 1 started using Global blending, instead of local, with no options for inputs. This has was not detected and sr25 was released and it should be fixed in in sr26 service release.
I still noticed different behaviour in the sweep1 component in 8.25.25328.11001, compared to earlier versions. Going back to SR24 helped, so I will stick with that version for now.
When the sections are not connected to the rail, a surface is created between the sections as expected in SR24. In SR25, the surface is extended to the start and the end of the rail. The behaviour of SR24 matches what I would expect, based on how the Sweep1 command behaves in Rhino.
Attached is a Grasshopper file with a couple of internalized components that shows the difference between SR24 and SR25. As can be seen in the screenshots below, SR24 creates a surface between the three profile lines, whereas SR25 extends the surface to the start and end point of the rail.
There was a good reason why the change was made to the Sweep 1 rail component around version 8.25. However, it seems that this change has had a larger impact on various other types of files, so it was decided to roll back all of the code that was introduced and make the component behave as it did in version 8.24. So, with the release of 8.27 RC 1 (which should be released later this afternoon), the Sweep 1 rail component should behave as it did prior to these changes. We apologize for this inconvenience.
