model

Hi ,

I'm developing a component with c # and I need to create a model as input (like

componenet ModelDissemble.)

I need help ://

Thank youu

maybe a start:

this component takes a model, and transfers the eccentricities from the cross sections to the beams they are assigned to.

Hi Robert,

I have a similar question. I am modelling a component which retrieves certain CroSec properties.

this is working until now:

private void RunScript(object CroSec, ref object h, ref object b, ref object t, ref object A, ref object Ay, ref object Az, ref object Wely, ref object Welz, ref object Wply, ref object Wplz, ref object iy, ref object iz)
{
Karamba.CrossSections.CroSec_Beam cs = CroSec as Karamba.CrossSections.CroSec_Beam;
h = cs.height * 100.0; // height in cm
//b = cs.
//t = cs.
A = cs.A * 10000.0; // area in cm2
Ay = cs.Ay * 10000.00; // shear area y in cm2
Az = cs.Az * 10000.00; // shear area z in cm2
Wely = cs.Wely_lower * 1000000.00;// moment of resistance y in cm3
Welz = cs.Welz * 1000000.00;// moment of resistance z in cm3;
Wply = cs.Wply * 1000000.00;// plastic moment of resistance y in cm3;
Wplz = cs.Wplz * 1000000.00;// plastic moment of resistance z in cm3;
iy = cs.iy * 100.00;// radius of gyration in cm
iz = cs.iz * 100.00;// radius of gyration in cm;
}

You see that b and t are still undefined. Is there a way to retrieve the width and thickness of a square or rectangular cross section?

Thanks

Lara

the basic cross section class does not have all properties of all different types.

you have to check if your object is of type I or Box or whatever, then you can access the members.

the script below is a script i used for checking different properties and correct naming (in my sample), you see i try to cast the objects and then see if it is null or valid ..!

private void RunScript(List<object> CroSec, double ctBiegung, double ctDruck, double ctKragarm, double Thickness, ref object Naming_, ref object Thickness_, ref object ctFail, ref object isBoxOrI, ref object h_, ref object b_, ref object ts_, ref object tg_, ref object madeNames)

Okay thanks!

hi robert

I return to the example you have given me to run it but I got this error:

1:Object reference not set to an instance of an object (line 132)

***

line 132 : for (int i = 0; i < _m.elems.Count; i++)

What is the problem ?

i dont know exactly, but i remember having trouble with the *.COFF array option toggle in this context somehow. toggling it + restarting GH (with grasshopperunloadplugin command) helped me back then.

try to reduce the script, resp. test its functions step by step..! with VS you can also debug and look at the variables' values within VS..!

hello I have a similar problem I have been loading and downloading the * .COFF array option from GH with GrasshoppperDeveloperSettings but it still does not work (for the case of Rhinoceros 5 and karamba 1.2.2) see blue image, for Karamba 1.3 and Rhinoceros 6 when downloading the * .COFF array option of GH can not be assembled in karamba.gha file, but I can assemble it when I load the * .COFF array option from GH. in Rhinoceros there is no option grasshopperunloadplugin, the error that appears when I assemble the file karamba.gha (loading the * .COFF array option of GH) is the one shown in the yellow image in Karamba 1.3 for Rhinoceros 6. it knows how I can solve this, thanks in advance.
