In some cases sweep1 is the only way to go. While the rhino command offers a good set of options, the grasshopper component only has “miter”. In rhino when sweeping I nearly almost use “global shape blending” (see pic below … top: with “global shape blending”, bottom without)
Would it be possible to integrate all sweep options into the component? Or offer a sweep options component (like “loft options”)?
there is a very complete Sweep1 function in Rhinocommon if someone with the Balls would be so kind to implement a user object out of that (I’m stable in top 5% worst PyCode writers EU 2017-2025)
Hello Tom_P,
took some time until I could test your “sweep1 with options”. I simplified a complex setting that I used for an ordinary sweep1 some time ago.
The sweep with options component works very well, also when dragging the sliders.
It gives a wrong result if I use the rail as it was created but works with a flipped version while grasshoppers original sweep1 component works with both versions of the rail.
