Kangaroo2 very basic problem

[shameem]

Hello, I am facing problems finding out what I am doing wrong here. I have some specific questions-

1. Does the anchor point needs to be exactly on the mesh?
2. Why does not my anchor point targets in the middle(attached image, file) attract the mesh as it is supposed to do that.
3. How do I know what I am doing wrong while working with kangaroo2 ?01.3dm (429.0 KB) 01.gh (16.3 KB)

Does the anchor point needs to be exactly on the mesh?

Yes, the “base” anchor points need to be on mesh vertex, then you can target them to the new points accordingly. Let say {0} => {0’}, {1} => {1’}…

When we move the base points on mesh vertex and having target points relatively, it works fine.

How do I know what I am doing wrong while working with kangaroo2 ?0

What I could say is keep practicing and have a look at K2 samples: GitHub - Dan-Piker/Kangaroo-examples: Example grasshopper definitions for the Kangaroo plugin… and this forum is very helpful so post your questions and seek for answers here. Good luck
