Hi Thomas, this is an error. But as Damien pointed out, there is a big difference between Rhino SDK OnSurface and Grasshopper surfaces. In Grasshopper we allow a surface to have trim curves, which means we need to store it internally as a single-faced OnBrep. As such it doesn't make a lot of sense to have an OnSurface type hint, but I'll see if I can fix the conversion.
Damiens suggestion will give you the most control over the geometry. Set the type-hint to OnBrep and then extract the first face or surface from the m_F and m_S arrays respectively. -- David Rutten da...@mcneel.com Robert McNeel & Associates On Mar 27, 12:19 pm, bildsoe <tho...@arkibot.dk> wrote: > Hi all > > I don't know i this is an error or there is a work around, but when i > set surfaces using the surface geometry component and then wan't to > use it as input in a vb.script component the surfaces are recognized > as breps, and if i try to change the hint to surface the component > turns red.
