I’m trying to categorize and separate members by their profile, rotation and member type. I’ve tried to use member index but it seems that it doesn’t understand curves (I have list of lines in curve component). Do I need to name those curves somehow before using member index to separate them by unique member attributes?
Member index only works on primitive datatypes - Text, Number, Integer, Boolean. You will either have to name the curves or if they are just lines, you can create a text by concating the the two endpoints of the line which will create a unique name for each line. Alternatively if your lines are referenced from rhino, you can use the GUID as a unique name

But does it have to be exact name when using member index? If I try to do the separation like this it gives nothing? Is there easier way to do what I’m trying to do here…
Member index is not working because the text strings arent the same. Your ‘set’ input to member index needs to be -
“HEA 120,0,Column” and not “Line(L:5000.00 mm)HEA 120,0,Column”
if you share the script here then we can help you out.
Hey Jere, I don’t have these plugins installed on my system and don’t wish to -
Can you internalize the part of the script that you are showing in the screenshot above? Internalize will break the link to your previous components and freeze the parameter as is so that you can copy and paste only that section for forum users to help out.
Not everyone has all kinds of plugins installed and it is easier to help out when only the focused part of the script is shared -
