algorithmic modeling for Rhino
What's the most efficient way to divide a curve by length from the midpoint out? And to make it even more fun, how would I do the same but with the segments centered?
Context: I'd like to write a definition to create panelized railings (think glass railings) along a curve. Panels are best manufactured at equal lengths, so I'd array a 1m panel, then have whatever is left over be a unique panel. There are many conditions that I might want to try:
1. Standard size from start, left-over size at end.
2. Standard size from end, left-over size at start.
3. Edge of standard size from midpoint, equal left-over size at start and end.
4. Center of standard size from midpoint, equal left-over size at start and end.
I'd like to switch between these 4 cases along with adjusting the length of the standard size panel to find the best solution.
So I could also ask if anybody knows of a preexisting solution that's already out there, too.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

hi
could you help me applying your formula to a curve that its on another formula?
i archieve the gh with the curves that are connected to your script.
Thank you so much!!
Hi Damon, i saw your definition for the balustrades. I had a similar problem for bridge spans.
However in your def what geometry are you capturing in the baluster single BREP ?. it has me puzzled. Saying that i get puzzled more often than I would like.

Hi Damon, many thanks for responding. I was puzzled with your the brep, I generated a 65SHS from a rect,cent,corner at 0,0,0 (1400 high). Oh, I also put in a random control point curve 30metres in length or so. What i didn't get was the lunchbox bake toggle.
All good now.
My def for the bridge spans is for a TL5 concrete texas HT vehicle barrier. There is a nasty U bracket that attaches the rail to the conrete base, I'll post when complete.
regards & thanks
