Warp Modifier using Grasshopper?

[DanielPiker]

Hi @ian.spring

One option is the Spatial Deform component:

Using a falloff such as x^-2 or x^-3 will give smooth transitions

Another option is the MeshCageMorph component:

NURBS surface overlap

You could use the mesh cage morpher from here: Using the cage morph lets you to use a much simpler mesh to make the deformation instead of moving all the control points yourself. You can even make this cage automatically using the ‘skeleton fattener’ component, then all you need to move to make the deformation are the points of a polyline like this: [cancan00000] legmorph.gh (93.4 KB)

Cage on ShoeLast

This deformation is not done with cageEdit. The last on this picture is a subD last, and it is morphed from one mesh (hidden) to a target mesh. I used the GH plugin fattener by Daniel Piker to achieve this. This has a component to morph a mesh (in this case the control polygon of a subD) from a reference to a target mesh. After the morphing of the controlpolygon the SubD is regenerated. See [Deforming an SubD last with my new toy.]

Add Mesh Morphing recipe to Rhino?

Hi It is very useful and I use it in nx [Mesh Morphing with Siemens NX]

Skeleton fattener + mesh cage morph

Hi everyone, Here is a first prototype of 2 new tools (as a .gha plugin), one for thickening skeletons into closed quad meshes, and one for morphing geometry with a mesh cage. Fattener.gha (27 KB) and some notes on how to use it here. Please bear in mind this is just an alpha version - no promises how well it will work. (This is following on from some of the earlier discussion in this thread: Creating smooth meshes from pipes, like tsPipe had in T-Splines? - #8 by DanielPiker) Thanks to a…
