Pattern

GH Community,

Seeking help for patterning problem i having. Thank you in advance for your help.

I am trying to cull a grid of points with the following pattern:

true

false

The first image (Capture1) shows the pattern in the correct way with the exception that it only has three (3) "false" inputs. When I add the fourth "false" input, the result is the second image (Capture2) which highlights entire rows. This is not the desired result. The pattern I want to see when selected, is the first point (0) green, then four red (1-4) points, then the fifth point (5) green. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Read this first! How to get help on this forum.

There is no way to help you without seeing your code. Isn't that obvious?

Yes Joseph, you're right - file attached.

The 'Image Sampler' will be lost in my copy of the file (Grasshopper bug) so copy/paste it from yours and re-connect as shown.

I suggest adding another 'Cull' for minimum radius, to eliminate the "pinholes":

I think it's the way you divided the surface. The pattern is still there in the second capture, but instead of picking a point after every 4 points now it's picking a row after every 4 rows.

Yes you are correct Geoffery.

I think my pattern would would see the columns being selected vertically based on the total number number points in the U direction being evenly divisible by five. However, if i were to have a number of points in the U direction not divisible by five, i would see the staggered pattern i see in the 2nd capture above. This is the goal.

This is a different approach for handling resolution - make it a slider!
