Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Hi Luis,

As you already know I'm a big fan of this and cannot praise its inclusion in GH enough.

Recently I have had a job which has highlighted a need which you might be able to incorporate to make the implementation of the Component more autonomous without the need for user intervention.

At present you have 1 main input for the data to be placed on a single sheet as per the input and the option to add more sheets manually.

Would it be possible to alter this to have a Data input and a Sheet Name Input so that the Path Structure dictates which sheet gets what data and the optional Name input gets applied.

For example

{0;0;0}(N=10) is Range A1:A10 on Sheet 1

...

{0;0;9}(N=10) is Range J1:J10 on Sheet 1

{1;0;0}(N=10) is Range A1:A10 on Sheet 2

...

{1;0;9}(N=10) is Range J1:J10 on Sheet 2

etc.

I realise that this would have to be very particular, making sure that only Place Holder A has influence over what sheet is used If there is a distinction of multiple sheet names.

For Example if you had a list of:

{0}(N=10)

{1}(N=10)

{2}(N=10)

{3}(N=10)

Place holder A could either be sheets or Rows so it would have to only work when there was a corresponding Sheet Names List for {0}, {1}, {2} and {3}

At present I have to do this manually using Explode Tree etc. Whenever I expand on the conditions (different Draft or Heel) Then I have to increase all of the outputs for the components highlighted in Pink

Hello Danny,

I see why this would be useful, but I cannot see a general automated way to deal with all possible data tree situations.  I might be able to make up something that takes:

{sheet nº;row}(items in row)

If the tree structure is {0}{1}{2}...{n} then maybe everything works as it does now...let me look at it.

Also, thanks for making a request!  We don't get many of these!

Thanks,

Up until now I have only used the writer component and one sheet was sufficient maybe two, but as i say this recent work has caused me some issues.

Since you posted that Android thing I have now used the udp components as well. :))

But I would say that my biggest wish for getting data into Rhino/GH would be for a Vector Chart reader of the S-57 format, if you ever have a spare 5(thousand) minutes ;))
