curve intersections

I'm really confused now...

Using the new VB.net scripting component, how would I get a set of intersection points between two curves?

It seems as though all of the old names like on3dpoint or onlinecurve have changed? is there a new refrence document out there somewhere?

Hi Vaughn,

that's right, everything starting with On**** is gone. We now use the new SDK called RhinoCommon. The auto-generated helpfile is available online: http://www.rhino3d.com/5/rhinocommon/

If you want to find intersections between curves, you'll need to use the Rhino.Geometry.Intersect.Intersection.CurveCurve() method.

Hi,

Grasshopper is now based on the RhinoCommon SDK.

For a sample on intersecting curves, see this help page. You only need the part after "Calculate the intersection" in Grasshopper, as you are already given the curves.

I hope this helps,

postscript: You can also use the 'Legacy' Vb.Net component. This references the old .Net SDK.
