I would like to create this ‘algorithm’ in grasshopper using hoopSnake I guess… It will take a rectangle and then divide it either horizontal or vertical, then it will take the newly created ‘rectangles’ and do it again until at a minimum size is reached… I hope somebody can help me to f…

[image] morten1: This is what this solution should be used for, to give some context. Don’t mind the ‘gap’ with the lamp on the floor, it would be nice if it could work just from a rectangle, and end up with vertical and horizontal lines. This version is much better. The ‘minSize’ slider spe…

Why not using Substrate component ? [image]

Completely different result though.

Why iterative? [div_rectangle_2020Sep12a] div_rectangle_2020Sep12a.gh (6.7 KB) P.S. Oh, I see - random. Why require Heteroptera for that? Your Geo is not internalized. [missing] [missing2]

I don’t believe this is as well behaved as I would like, but it’s not too bad? Anemone, not HoopSnake. [div_rectangle_2020Sep12b] div_rectangle_2020Sep12b.gh (26.6 KB) P.S. Here’s the effect of increasing the range/value of the ‘Repeat’ slider and decreasing the ‘size’ slider. [div_rectangle…

Try this and improve it, you need Anemone loop and a python component (attached). rec.gh (21.4 KB) Brep Borders.ghpy (23 KB) [image]

There’s also some examples of this on the old forum. Here’s a GHPython solution I did: [image] Window Frame Facade - random size surface division Good evening everybody. Is there anyway to do a facade like shown below. Dividing a surface into random rectangle shapes? There is this Launchb…

Thanks first of all. [Screenshot 2020-09-13 at 09.06.29] The problems is that the big blue area is not divided while the other areas are really small. [Screenshot 2020-09-13 at 09.10.05] This is a manual example of how it should end up looking like… [IMG_7238] And this is an example of piec…

[image] morten1: The problems is that the big blue area is not divided while the other areas are really small. I matched your input values (white group) as best I could but you removed the ‘0 to 300’ domain for the Random component so I don’t know what domain you are using for that? Or what …

Looks brilliant. Will check it out when I come in contact with some prober metal. :slight_smile:

This was exactly what I was searching for… The only thing which I will have to change is that it will export lines instead of rectangles… I can do that with the ‘Typologizer’ plugin. Maybe you have a better solution? Otherwise you answered my question so nice. :slight_smile: It even works with poly…
