Hey, i have a problem finding a way to build an outside surface or shell over a lattice structure. [lattice_structure] lattice.gh (6.0 KB) i build a lattice structure that looks something like this. random points which are connected with the proximity 3d tool. i am using that so i can limit the…

yes thanks, i attached the gh file.

Look into mesh edits convex hull components

hey, that was a good tip. don’t know how i could oversee that.it works really well and basically does what i need. but it would be nice to be able to customize the difference in which a surface will be created. any idea if there is an option to do that?

I don’t know what what “difference” means in this context. Can you be more specific?

with difference i mean something like a search radius for the convex hull to connect points with surfaces. the proximity 3D box has input variables for a min and a max search radius to connect points with lines. my ideal tool would be the convex hull that only connects points within a certain dist…

Try @laurent_delrieu ’s Alpha Shape 3D .

thanks! amazing tool, but it only works properly for spaces with high point population. otherwise it will fail easily and create open meshes in order to get it to work for my purpose i built boxes around each point, mesh them, populate the mesh and then let the alpha shape do its magic. with a bit …

You can then test shrink wrap on your mesh You will find many discussion on that on this forum and www.grasshopper3d.com
