Exporting Galapagos Outputs

How can you see all the possibilities galapagos calculates simulatenously in the Rhino viewport?

I am interested in baking a solution set generated by galapagos, however I see the geometries redrawn in Rhino's viewport in rreal-time, but have no way to access them after the solver is done running its course.

Is there any way to visually document the solved examples and in the sequence galapagos generates?

Thanks

Hi Monique,

Thanks for asking this question, because it prompted me to test a way to do that. I just uploaded a video here, which shows a very brief example to export Galapagos outputs by combining Galapagos with the recently created Finches Export component (Formerly named Local Code Export). You can find out more about the component here.

We didn't design the component with this specific purpose in mind, so the results are a bit much (it can create a LOT of files very quickly). Also note that you could just change the file extension to ".ai" if you'd like to export illustrator files instead of .3dm files.

This is hilarious, because we hadn't thought of such a use when we renamed the component "Finches", but now the name is even more apt!

Attached is the definition used in the video. You'll need to install the Finches (Local Code) Components in order to open the file.

Hi,

I am facing the same issue as Monique.

The Finches Export is an appropriate solution to my problem. But unfortunately I'm not able to access that component and the website that u mentioned above.

Can you please help me out with this?
