Hi
I’m quite new at grasshopper, and I’m trying to create a script that uses the tekla component “Auto bolt” to place holes along a beam a bit more efficiently then the actual component. But I’m having trouble understanding the input sequence for the “create component”-component in grasshopper. I have manually placed the component in tekla and used deconstruct component to try and understand, but even if I plug those inputs straight back to the “create component”, I get an error saying 1. System.Exception: Failed to insert Component # 0
Failed to insert Component # 1
I have tried to flatten the input so it’s all in one line, but I get the same error only without the component 1.
And in the Tekla window the message “Illegal input – Auto bolt: Could not get user input” occurs
Any tips on how to get these input values correct?
I can add that I am using the auto bolt component from tekla because it seemed to me like grasshopper didn’t have any components to create bolts. But if anyone know a way to create bolts directly from grasshopper that would also work.
The input required for the Auto Bolt component is a list of two points in one input and a list of the objects to bolt in another. If there’s only one object, that needs to be duplicated.
