Hi,
I updated Rhino and suddenly my grasshopper file does not generate correct geometry anymore.
What I can find is that PlaneSrf does not give correct results anymore, unless I take the input surface through a Surface component.
Has anyone else encountered this?
Hi @Zarrtosht,
Could you please share a .gh file that illustrates this?
Hello,
I am having the same problem with a very large grasshopper file for making cabinets. All of the geometry is off. I think I last used the file before the latest update. My co-workers are having the same problem with the file on their computers. Is there an easy way to go back a version to see if the update is causing the problem?
Thanks,
Jason
I had the exact same problem in my case I had to flatten some curve inputs going into the plane surface node/module
Hi -
Did you notice that Kike asked for a .gh file that illustrates the issue?
Jason, which version of Rhino were you running before the one that you have installed now?

Hi @Zarrtosht,
This is fixed on next 8.17 RC that will be released next Tuesday.
The issues I seem to be having might be related.
Here are some pictures of a few of the issues. Several aspects of the program are off. Breps are not where they should be. Some of the parts are where they should be, others like drawer fronts, drawer boxes and the breps I use to make some of the screw holes are all off.
The photos include a couple of examples of this. I have included a baked cabinet that I made a few weeks ago with the same grasshopper file. I have also tried previous versions of the file with the same results.
I think it just might be my lack of experience with making good grasshopper programs. The update seem to reorder some of my list items which is throwing off my build. I guess I just need to trouble shoot all the list items to get things back to where they should be.
I have also experienced that the update has reordered my lists!!!
Hi Jason -
We can’t use pictures to troubleshoot issues.
Since we don’t have anything concrete to go on - generally speaking, you can’t trust the order of objects in lists to remain the same at all times. Generally, you need to come up with rules that assure that the correct items are being used in the correct order.

I can understand this to be a good praxis, i.e., to order ones lists rules-based, but it can be unrealistic to excpect it from the user to do this in all situations, in case an updated messes everytging up.
Lets say I deconstruct a complex geometry and pick one item of it with List Item today. Creating a rule for everything similar to this would take double tje time to automize a project, suddenly, your’re not saving time anymore.
That is what happened on my end. I have several deconstruct breps that got reordered after the update.
Guys, a .gh would really help here…

My GH file is huge, I wouldnt know what to send you for the specific issue of re-ordered lists. I dont know how to go back a version in order to find out everything that changed. You should be thankful that we point out these issues instead of requiring us to make all the work for you.
I didnt even get a thanks for pointing out the PlaneSrf issue… come on! whats up with the attitude?
My program is also somewhat large, and I’d rather not post the whole thing. Here is a screenshot of two examples of components that changed their order after the update. The Breps being deconstructed are just rectangular boxes shown in image 2. The edges I need are in image three. The edge circled in black also changed direction and I had to switch the start and the end points (in bottom red circle image 1). I know that the order of the edges can change, but with all the inputs for this program, they have never changed their order until the update. I would love a suggestion on how to create a rule that would force an order and keep the edges going in the same direction. I use more or less the same group of components a couple dozen times to create drill holes in the cabinet side for several different types of cabinets. So there are many list items inputs I have to find and fix when the order changes.
Thanks for your help.
