Image Sampler with customized shapes

Grasshopper
1

Hi there!

I’m trying to do a script where I can use the image sampler using customized shapes. This is where I got so far but it has two problems, shapes get deformed to fit within the circle limits and the whole script calculation is veeeery slow and I can barely work with it. I just want the resulted curves but so far this is the solution I came through. Any ideas?

Thanks a lot for your help!

If you don’t want overlapped geometries and faster calculations… Using mesh would help.

thanks a lot! It works much better now! :slight_smile: and yes I didn’t want the shapes to overlap. Just wondering, if I only need the curves at the base (I was using brep wireframe) from it and not the extrusions, is there any other way to have a similar results without using the bounding box? Will that make it even faster? Thanks

Orient is much faster in this case…
