hey everyone,
i have the typical data structure for multiple grids on surfaces in which the columns are different branches and the rows have same indices. Now i want to create a individual branch for all same colored rectangles shown in the picture below (Branch 0: red, Branch 1: orange, Branch 3: yellow etc.)
i could not figure out how to weave cull or treat the existing data to achieve this result and would highly appreciate any help from your side
Very simple indeed !
I used a plugin to put color, but you don’t need it.
The trick is to change color in points and group ! So you can have near color it will also work.
f.e. the green surfaces {3;0}(0), {3;1}(3), {3;2}(6), {3;3}(9), {3;4}(12), {3;5}(15), {3;6}(18), {3;7}(21) or the orange ones {3;0}(15), {3;1}(18), {3;2}(21) shall become one single branch. This should work on multiple surfaces with different divisons. Even if understanding the rule i dont now how to applie it to create the correct branches - i hope you can help me out.
… I think that comes in hand with the fact that Pejo doesn’t know how to select the cells of his grid that have similar colour, i.e. how to get his diagonal sets/branches. The colors were probably selected by hand in the .3dm file.
The colours came from the rhino model i linked in the last replie. Migth be missleading but I only used them to illustrate the branch structure i am aiming for. The grasshopper file contains panels from which i try to create the new branch structure. I hope it is clear now.
From your example, do you need independent diagonals to be separate branches, or can similar colours be merged? i.e. Do the reds of diagonal {3;0}(20) and {3;1}(23) need to be held separate from the red at {3;17}(1)?
this surface is subdivided with lunch box (script below) - its data structure is indicated with the black tags. 241115_diagonal_branch_weaving.gh (14.6 KB)
starting from this subdivision i want to create a new data structure with diagonal branches like {3;0}(0), {3;1}(3), {3;2}(6), {3;3}(9), {3;4}(12), {3;5}(15), {3;6}(18), {3;7}(21) or {3;0}(15), {3;1}(18), {3;2}(21)
to give a more visual idea of the branches/pattern i try to achieve i uploaded this picture in which each colour represents one of the new branches i am aiming for. the colours should not be used in the code and also its not important to coloure the faces like that but should only show which panels form on data branch.
I’m sure that the many more experienced scripters in this forum will look at this with bewilderment. But that’s because I am an idiot. At least it works:
If you need an explanation on how or why this works, I can deliver one later as time permits. Perhaps in that time someone will have given you a better solution.
