When I copy and paste x, +, - modules, A and B appear in the inputs. NO

[Mars]

When I delete the input text, then copy and paste the x, +, and - modules, A and B reappear in the inputs.
I do not want this. It is unappealing. It is unpleasant.
In Rhinohopper 5.~~~ , when I deleted the text in the inputs and then copied and pasted the modules, they stayed blank. That was very satisfying. I enjoyed it.
The division module [in Rhino 6] still behaves properly! Wonderful!
What must I do to get the three non-division modules to also behave appropriately?

In fact, the modules with the “old” stickers on them behave appropriately. Is there anything I can do to get the “old” stickers off the modules that work?

Could you explain to me how this thread is not supposed to be in the Grasshopper category?

[Mars]

It is now.

Unnamed parameters signal to variable-parameter components that they have to invent a nickname for the unnamed input/output. You can use spaces as nicknames, it doesn’t actually make the components any wider than empty names.

I could have used a different string to signal unnamed-ness like ">/':}+~" which would have been less likely to conflict with a human chosen name, it just didn’t occur to me people would not want to name their inputs, but I can see how for simple arithmetic operations where all inputs are basically of the same type and meaning it might make sense.

@Mars

1. What do I need to do to get the three non-division math operations to behave like the division module?

I’m not trying to speak in riddles.

Use spaces instead of empty nickname. You cannot change the behaviour, if you want 100% control over every aspect of a program, you will have to write it yourself.

@Mars

This is a significant problem in my workflow and being a fag isn’t doing you any favors.

Use spaces instead of empty nicknames and it won’t be a kink in your workflow any longer.
Any more homophobic comments and you’re permanently going on my naughty list.

@Mars

that DID NOT EXIST in the early days when I downloaded the trial, BEFORE I PAID FOR THE PROGRAM!

It still does not exist, if you use the obsolete components that did not support a variable number of input parameters. The newer versions have components that do (except for Division, as you so eloquently observed) and one of the problems that came along with this change is that empty nicknames are now treated as an indicator for missing nicknames. But, you can use spaces instead to get around this undesired behaviour.

@Mars

Your company literally discouraged the act of paying for the program with the anti-incentive/deterrent of fucking it up immediately upon payment.

I can’t even begin to understand what process of thought would lead you to this conclusion. My time is far too precious to try and trick paying customers into applying for a refund, despite the vast riches this obviously entails.

@Mars

Your actions remind me of the jew-disease that attempts to create insurmountable hoards of evidence in order to discourage investigation the moment anyone mentions that there is a problem, of some fag-ass jew-disease that is molesting kids, shooting people in their genitalia, hanging puppies, shooting dogs, drowning kittens, poisoning children, killing cow and horse alike to rot in a field, and of course, killing other people, too.

I think it’s probably best you return the software for a full refund and we part ways here in perpetuity.

@Mars

2. Should I pay for your program?

I’d say no.

@Mars

3. Is that going to restore its functionality? In other words, upon payment, will you become less of a fag, instead of more of a fag, as ya did the last time I purchased this program?

I’d say no.

@Mars

I didn’t stumble upon Rhino Grasshopper to be insulted by some insidious fag such as yourself.
You are doing nothing but standing in the way of progress, whilst ruining the experience of your own software and thus your reputation in the process.

The day my reputation can be adversely affected by name calling homophobes and anti-semites is the day I switch careers.
