algorithmic modeling for Rhino
Hi Folks,
I am trying to get around the limitations of an old program, by using grasshopper to generate an input file for it.
I want to know if there is a way to make a VBA script run once - for a full data branch instead of once for each piece of data received in a branch
To explain what i am doing, lets say I have 10 points, with different X and Y - I want to use grasshopper to generate the code like (Where X1, Y1 etc are X in position 1, y for position 1 etc):
"
<Points>
<Point ID="1" y="y1" x = "x1"/>
<Point ID="2" y="y2" x = "x2"/>
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
<Point ID="10" y="y10" x = "x10"/>
</points>
"
Sort of got it working - but of course I am generating 10 sets of code with 10 points but the same X and Y.
The VBA setup and code I am using are below.
X is X1 to X10
Y is Y1 to Y10
u is a count (so I can loop through each X/Y pair).
Any help, or suggestions of better ways would be most appreciated!
Cheers
LyndonJ

Posted that a bit early!
After reading around for a few hours I came across another post i found you can set the input on the VBA component to 'list' rather than 'item'.
Using this and then referring to item(i) got the loop working nicely.
