Wish: Grasshopper cluster with slider included

Grasshopper
1

Hi to Everyone,

I often ceate clusters where sliders are needed as input.
But sliders can’t be included into the cluster when I made it.
I always have to add the slider to the cluster and reset all the options as I need.

Is there any way to inculde sliders into the cluster as I imagined?

Hi Enzo,

You can not do it with regular grasshopper cluster.

You can do it with MetaHopper snippet.

Download the MetaHopper.gha file from here:

  1. Put it in your Grasshopper application menu’s: File -> Special Folders -> Components Folder.

  2. Check if it is blocked (right click on the .gha file and click on “Unblock” if it is there).

  3. Type: “GrasshopperUnloadPlugin” command.
    Then again type “Grasshopper” command.

  4. Connect all your components with your desired sliders. You do not need the “Cluster input” and “Cluster output” parameters.

  5. Select everything (all components and parameters), and in Grasshopper’s application menu, choose: “MettaHopper -> Save Snippet”. This will save your snippet the same way a cluster would do: as a .ghuser file, but with sliders included.
