Grasshopper 0.6.0057 available for Download

Hi All,

some minor updates and some bug fixes that have been reported over the past few days:

Download Grasshopper 0.6.0057

This is BETA software, don't come crying to me if it all goes pear-shaped.

Major Bug Fixes:
- Picking code has been tuned up, window-selection was ignoring modifier key states, that has been fixed.
- Vector parameters did not retain inline expressions during Save/Open and Copy/Paste, this is fixed.

Biggest new features:
- Image sampler has a button to set the domain of the image to the pixel dimensions.
- New object added: PieGraph.
- VB and C# components can now reference exe, dll, gha and rhp files.
- Group colour can now be set.

Enjoy!

A zipped installer can be downloaded here, in case you work for an evil corporation which doesn't allow you to download exe files.

Hi David,
Congratulations！！ But I think you make a tiny number-typing mistake on another page here.

Hi David,

Very fast update, indeed! ;-)

Are you going to implement a OnGroup class among the VB comp type hint options? Just thinking it could be helpful to have it...

Cheers,

Giulio

Giulio,

where are you getting an OnGroup object from and how are you using it?

Hi David,

I meant OnObject actually..but probably it makes little difference. I would use composite geometries (multiple breps) as unique group/object and I'd duplicate it quickly (duplicateOnObject).

Maybe is there an easiest solution?

And are these composites supposed to interact with regular Grasshopper components?

The only thing that TypeHint does is a cast, which you can do yourself:

Public Sub RunScript(ByVal x As System.Object, ByRef A As System.Object)
Dim int_value As Int32 = DirectCast(x, Int32)
...
End Sub

if you don't know what to cast to, use Reflect(x) to have a closer look at what you're getting.
