Compare 2 shapes

Hi guys, I would like to compare 2 shapes, retrieve first shape's layers (black, green, red) on the second that it's only defined by points. Someone could help me? Thanks a lot!!

"retrieve first shape's layers (black, green, red) on the second that it's only defined by points." I'm not understanding what you mean here.

Sorry man!! I would have the same curves and layers (1st shape) on the 2nd shape (on right). The 2nd shape is a unique closed curve where there are some points (point's that define the ends of 1st shape's curves).

Anyone? ;-) There will be more shapes (see the image).

Are you saying that you want to merge the first layer shapes onto the second layer shapes so that you have one composite geometry?

I "exploded" my shapes and I have all segments that make up the base curves. Now I need to sort segments according to layer grouping defined at the start. Hope that someone could help me!!

I don't think grasshopper recognizes layers or other groupings. Sorting objects according to layers can be done with a Rhinoscript separately or with a VB.net script within Rhino.

Isn't possible to compare result segments to initial shape for grouping?

I get it. Yes you can do that. I was thinking that you were using the word 'group' in regard to Rhino object groups. Apologies for my misunderstanding. I'll look at it later tonight.
