How to pass from a square to a circle in opposite side of a grid.

Hi guys,

It's been one week I'm trying to do this, but I can't make it. I was thinking that maybe someone will be able to help me!

Basically I'm trying to have on the top left side of a grid a square and on the bottom right side a circle. And inbetween, I want the form to change slowly.
I attached a pictures that shows what I want.

I managed to do that with an other shape: kind of a square becoming a star.

And then when I try to do it with my circle/square it's not working, and I don't get why. Does anybody know why?

Linked: one grasshopper file with: - the "file" that works"
                                                  - how I pass form a square to a cirlce using one slider only

                                                  - the "file" that I want but doesn't work.

I know that an easiest way of doing it might exists, but didn't find it! :D


Hope someone will be able to help me soon! :)

Hey,

Yeah it's something like that, thanks a lot. But I still have a problem with that: When I make the grid bigger, the change (from square to circle) is going from down to up and not in the diagonal. Is it possible to do the change in the diagonal.



I mean: here we have on the bottom: squares, and on the top: circles. But I would like to have, only on the bottom left side a square and on the top right side a circle, all other a shape inbetween circle and square. Do you know what I mean?

Since you are changing the grid the square becomes a circle in many more steps. the order does not change. it is from bottom left to top right. the bottom left shape is the only square and the top right is the only circle. all others are in between.

Oh Okey, I see it now! :)

I was hoping to have this imaginary line in the diagonale, but I was wrong!

Thank you very much, it helped me! I knew there was an easiest way to do it! :D

Best,

Sarah

Have you tried using the technique described on page 39 of the paneling tools manual? (ptPanelGridCustomVariable )

http://wiki.mcneel.com/_media/labs/panelingtoolsmanual.pdf

Oh no, never seen this manual before! I found an other one that looks like.

I'll try right away! Thank you very much! :)

That may be an older version of the manual, but the process is the same.

You may also want to check out the paneling tools group and post questions there.  If you/re lucky, you may even get a response from rajaa herself!

Just use an attractor in the corner.

EDIT: sorry, divide "a" input of construct domain (cell size) by 2.
