Hexagonal with different order

[Mr.Ralf]

Hello everyone,
I’m currently working on a hexagonal structure with different orders, as illustrated in the figure below. My work is being done in Grasshopper, but I’ve reached a stage where I need to join multiple curves together to form a single polyline. Following this, I aim to offset this polyline to create a certain thickness for the structure. I would greatly appreciate any guidance on how to proceed with these steps or any advice on formulating my approach more effectively.
Thank you in advance for your help!

I see you’re already using Clipper plugin

if you are planning to give the lines a thickness, then I wouldn’t worry too much about trimming them to avoid overlappping, as I guess you might region-them-out more easily using Clipper?

for instance:

1

2

3

you can go on forever…

by the way, in this file I’m using the Clipper2 plugin (you can find it in Packagemanager)

I guess you can also also loop this using Anemone for instance:

@inno Thank you for your help. Your work seems so right, but I’m having a problem with the Grasshopper files. I keep getting error messages about missing plugins, even after I tried downloading them. The same errors pop up every time I open the files. Can you guide me on what to do next?

He is working surely with Rhino 8 and you Rhino 7
And Clipper2

Clipper2GH

use PackageManager to upload Clipper2. Then you can open on Rh7.

Thank you for your assistance. I followed your suggestions and installed the necessary plugins through the package manager, even ensuring I got the manual version to match. However, I’m still facing the same error messages when I open the Grasshopper files. What should I try next?

[laurent_delrieu]

Update Rhino 7 !! The message means Clipper will work with Rhino version >= 7.35.
