Hi, I’m a beginner with Grasshopper and I’m having an issue with the Graph Mapper. Does anyone know why I’m getting this weird closed line instead of a continuous wavy line?
Basically I have a line, I divided the line and wanted to move the points on Z axis to make that wavy line but is not giving me a closed nice curve. Can’t understand what’s wrong
Hello
it is always hard to help without script.
As you have a closed curve Graph Mapper doesn’t ensure that the value at the start equal the value at the end.
If you want to stay with Graph Mapper double click on it and move slowly the controls in order to have start and end equals
Graph Mapper is for mappings that are stylistic and where precision doesn’t matter. The gap you are getting in your curve is because, as mentioned, your curve is periodic but the start and end domain values are not equal. You don’t have to use Path Mapper to create mappings. You can also use expressions. I am not the strongest in Math, but I have been brushing off some of my basic high school math skills in order to attempt to make custom mappings:

Thank you both. I managed to get it done with suggestions, much appreciated
