algorithmic modeling for Rhino
Hi,
I imported a .dwg drawing in Rhino with closed polylines that I need to reference in Grasshopper. The catch is that I need to reference them with the same order(index) they are in the original file so I can match attributes to each. (sample file attached)`
I am trying to access ID information from Rhino to Grasshopper. The file is composed of multiple closed polylines.
The part of the ID that I require is the specific list order the geometry file was saved in (which is saved in Rhino next to the ID within a bracket in the following format;
curve
ID: 5a5b1eec-e3cc-42c6-9478-9144b970848f (16112)
Layer name: Unknown_Area_Type
Render Material:
source = from layer
index = -1
Geometry:
Valid curve.
Closed polyline with 4 points.
(465592,3.96395e+06,2662), (466220,3.96396e+06,2662), ..., (465592,3.96395e+06,2662)
domain = 0 to 4
Geometry UserData:
UserData ID: 3B7FB506-437C-431e-B1D7-93C4CBFF417F
Plug-in: Rhino
description: Gumball grip frame
saved in file: yes
copy count: 1
I need to extract (this) number or else be able to select all geometry in the rhino file with the same order they are saved in Rhino.
Am I right in assuming the geometry order matches the order of the original file if I have not removed/added Geometry?
Any help with this will be greatly appreciated!

Hello Kane,
this probably won't help, but the [Guid] component can provide you with the actual ID of each object (not the number inside the parenthesis you are after).
But I noticed in your file that if you select everything with one single selection window and reference them in GH then the objects will be sorted based on this number:
I am not sure this is always the case but maybe you can look into it some more....
ps. also noticed that if you select everything with Ctrl+A then they are sorted the oposite way (from higher to lower number)...
Welcome to
