hello guys i have been playing around with the circle packing exercise for a while now , the thing is that im trying to extract the center point of each gap between the circles like in the image , any ideas please?

my bad here !
you dont have rhino 8 or a missing pluging thats the problem,everything is internalised sir
you sure?
im using rhino7!!
yes as you can see you have white boxes indicating missing plugins or older version of rhino
this might be a solution, but I’m not really proud of it

expecially I’m not proud of this, where for each circle it retrieves the corresponding mesh vertex on which it’s created based on proximity, instead of just using the available data:
probably you can indeed just manipulate data from here, and get to the very same result without using proximity check, but I’m not able to think about it at the moment:
[edit] you might want to add a data dam here, because you don’t want Region Intersection to be triggered by each output of the Kangaroo solver 
but just by the good final one:
final result:
[edit_2] if you also want the outer points:
alltogether:

These points can be generated from the same mesh which generates the compact circle packing.

These are the inner Soddy circles of the triangles

thank you mister but its shwoing me this error
what should i do please? where can i find the plugin?
You may need to update your Rhino to a more recent service release
okay let me try
if it’s a csharp component can you please send me the c# code and ill just copy it in my script?
Which version are you running? (check with Help>About Rhinoceros and it will show the full version number in the lower right)
this one : Rhinoceros812332513001
can you send me the c# script and ill just copy it ? will it work?
Just update to the current service release and it should work
