Grasshopper 1.0 new features list

[K4rl33]

Dear all GH users. This topic is created to collect all the new stuff available in Grasshopper 1.x in order to have a complete overview of all the new functionalities and how they will work.

Thank you for your collaboration.

[DavidRutten]

Incomplete list of new features:

• Support for Screen UI scaling.
• Data Output and Data Input components added.
• Object Details component added.
• Relay object added, along with double-click-on-wire interaction for automatic insertion.
• More File and Folder selection schemes added to the File Path parameter.
• Child-layer notation now supported in the Geometry Pipeline object.
• Support for variable inputs in the Addition, Subtraction, and Multiplication arithmetic components.
• Custom using statements added to the C# and VB script components.
• Sequence component added (I think anyway, I no longer have R5 and GH0.9 installed to check).
• Flip Plane component added.
• Quad Sphere component added.
• Control Point Loft component added.
• Fit Loft component added.
• Fillet Edge component along with various edge selection components added.
• Flip Mesh component added (again, not sure about this one).
• Unify Mesh component added (ditto, not sure).
• Split Brep and Split Brep Multiple added (someone check these against GH0.9).
• Make 2D component and various view setup components added.
• Sort Ascending and Sort Descending options added to Quick Graph.
• Symbol (Simple), Symbol (Advanced) and Symbol Display components added.
• Custom Preview component now sends meshes+materials to the render pipeline in rendered viewports and RDK compliant render engines.
• The Material parameter can now be instantiated by providing the name of a material in the current 3dm file or by specifying an *.rmtl file.

Don’t forget all Flow …Sporph …
A tentative of list was put there

Algorithms-Aided Design by Arturo Tedeschi? *** New components in GH1.0 ***

And some news in Panel Surface Utils [image] Fillet Edge Convex Edges Edges from length Edges from face Edges from linearity Edges from points Edges from Direction [image] Flip Plane in Vector Plane [image] [image] GH1.0 new components.gh (43.6 KB)

[Michael_Pryor (ekim)]

All the Brep edge selection components.

• Special Code Mappings for Panels - special characters in panels

• Copy Name Mode - transfer nicknames using wires

• Curve Domain (i think)

V6 Feature: Multi-threaded GH Components

The latest WIP includes a new behavior in Grasshopper that we are experimenting with to improve performance; multithreaded component solving. The following four components have been modified to perform calculations using multiple threads. Contour Dash Pattern Divide Curve Boundary Surface We are decorating these components with small dots in the upper left corner to help you understand the component’s capabilities and current ‘mode’ of operation. No dots : the component does not currently s…

Tutorial: creating a Grasshopper component with the Python GHPY compiler

GhPython in Rhino WIP ships with an all-Rhino Python compiler that can be used to create .Net compiled assemblies containing compiled instructions. Unlike other methods that are based on embedding a Python code string in a C# component, this speeds up code execution and makes reverse engineering more difficult. There are two options for the process of making a component, #1 is extremely simplified and #2 is more advanced. The component is able to pick up names, descriptions and help from the or…

Thanks Michael
A tentative to update GH1.0 new components.gh (40.2 KB) I have no more Python , I had problem, suppress it and I don’t manage to reinstall it.

I like this battery. How is this battery code written?

[laurent_delrieu]

It is surely coded using Rhinocommon function

[DavidRutten]

I seem to remember I just create a nurbs-surface with specific control point locations.

[Michael_Pryor (ekim)]

They are called components, not battery.

[DavidRutten]

Some of my esteemed colleagues at the Robert McNeel & Associates software development department call them “batteries” as well. Not quite sure where it came from, but it’s clearly not going away.

[Michael_Pryor (ekim)]

But what do they charge

@DavidRutten

Not quite sure where it came from

9V batteries can look like this:

And the Grasshopper equivalent:

I know why, just don’t recall who did it first and when.
