Sorting Points based on Position

Hi everyone,

 

Im trying to get some point sorted so i can then sort them and link them by polylines, to create a foldable surface. i am really stuck and i can figure out how to get the numbers to start at one of the end point and continue in sequence.

 

Here are some photos of what im trying to say

 

Thanks for Your Help

Did you see this Post from David in the thread about 2d sorting? http://www.grasshopper3d.com/forum/topics/sort-mesh?commentId=29852...

Hi Danny, the 'sort points' component is the one i tried to use in the first place. i was looking for a way of sorting the points that i get the diamond shaped surface that could create a self-supporting ceiling.

 

thanks a lot for your help

This just posted by David will also do what you need if Sort Components doesn't work for you.

There is a Sort Points Component that will order points based on the Euclidean Coordinates. Is this sufficient or do you need more control over X then Y sorting?
