Eto user interface to control grasshopper components

[katakurashohei (sk)]

I want to make Eto user interface in rhino to control grasshopper components. Is it possible except using remote control panel?

[DavidRutten]

Is the Eto part important? How easy it is to use the Eto platform depends on what version of Rhino you’re working on.

And what do you mean by ‘control’ exactly? You can modify slider values, even read and set local data of parameters, but some things will be difficult to modify because there is no public api for them.

Thank you

What I mean control is simple such as sending on / off or numerical data to grasshopper.

What I mean control is simple such as sending on / off or numerical data to grasshopper.

Depending on where you want this numerical data to end up, it’s going to be either easy (source-less number parameters, panels, sliders, dials, all easy) or really hard (gene pools, cherry pickers, all hard).

None of it has anything to do with Eto, the UI platform is irrelevant when it comes to poking Grasshopper values.

I found another solution.

Windows Forms - Track bar - live update to Grasshopper component

Hi, I have a window form once I double click on the component. On the windows form I have a track bar - “slider”. I want to pass value to component from that track bar instantly without pressing update each time. Is it possible to do so? I understand that to pass a value from windows form to grasshopper component, I need to write if statement for checking if dialogResult is ok or other state , that requires pressing a windows form button. But is it possible to pass a value without this if …

I misunderstood eto. thank you for youre reply.
