The jungle where all Rhino animals live
New Release of Paneling Tools for Rhino 4.0 SR7
Another update just released March 15. Every 3 months ain't that bad.New features:
- ptExtractCenterGrid to generate a new center points of input grid.
- ptMeanGrid to generates intermediate grids. There is an option to create the surface that goes through mean grids.
- ptMeanSurfaces to generate intermediate mean surfaces. Input start and end surfaces
are not matched in terms of direction or base UV point location. The
algorithm divides the surface using surface UV directions, generate mean
points and use points to create the mean surface. - ptPanel3DCustomVariable: This is a first prototype that include the following features.
- It supports two methods for distributing variable patterns. The list
based method take surfaces or polysurfaces, but the mean-based one take
only untrimmed surfaces. - Surfaces UV parameterization is not adjusted internally by the command. The user must ensure surfaces are
matched (test input start and end surfaces with ptMeanSurface before
running the command). - Variation is defined by surface curvature, attractors or randomly.
- It supports two methods for distributing variable patterns. The list
- ptRemoveOverlapedPoints: This command takes point input (doesn't have to be part of a paneling grid)
and remove duplicate overlapping points. - Added an "Overlap" option to ptCloseGrid command. It is set to "1" by default to create a
single seam for an open grid, but the user can now set it to any number.
For example if Overlap=2, then it will create a double seam. There is
also the "StartIndex" option to define what row/column index to
duplicate. This is useful for wrapping patterns that expand over more
than one unit length.
Following set of prototype commands are meant to help serialize, view and export joint and connector data
useful for FE and other analysis:
- ptSerializePoints: Add user data to point objects that consists of a serial number and data string
(can include any text based string defined by the user). - ptSerializeEdges:Add user data to curve objects that consists of a serial number, the serial
number of the two end points that it is connecting and data string (can
incluse any text based string defined by the user). - ptTagSerializedData: Show points and edges serialize data in the form of a Dot or Text.
- ptExportPointsSerializeData: Export points data to a text file. There are options to add start and
end strings, export the serial number and to add new line. - ptExportEdgesSerializeData: Export Edge data to a text file. There are options to add start and end
strings, export the serial number and to add new line.
Terminated commands:
- ptPanelCurve and ptPanelSurface commands were terminated because their functionality is available through other
commands.
