Hi! I’m currently in need of saving
I have a complicated surface that I’m trying to make perforated with various sized parallelograms, preferably with two chamfered corners. The parallelograms will match the shape of the breaks in the facade I made that covers my atrium space. I have been trying to piece together information from youtube tutorials but I feel like I’m running in circles. If there’s anyone on here that knows how to do this, help would be very much appreciated. I will post reference pictures, a file with the surface, and a file showing my shape on the facade for the atriums. I am very desperate and don’t know where to go from here.
Yes, I’ve tried this but I think my surface maybe too complex? Whenever I add in the diamond panels and input my surface it extrudes my surface down. Maybe this is because my surface is a triangle and it wants to make it square. Do you know how to keep it from doing this?
Just to clear this up, your surface was trimmed to get the triangular shape. LunchBox doesn’t take the trimming into account, but applies the tessellation to the underlying, untrimmed surface.
I guess this would probably be pretty hard to do. The biggest challenge is to select neighbouring cells automatically that together form a bigger cell. It’s pretty easy to do it by hand though.
You’ve made a small mistake by connecting the Triangles output to the Lng (List Length) component, instead of the Diamonds output.
You want a random number for each diamond, since you want to frames those. Currently you produce a random number for each triangle instead.
