No, I totally missed it. You were referring to the hexagons... I thought you meant the background of the panels. But that image actually didn't have the debug background (should have checked before mouthing off :) Come to think of it, they both kind of look bee-like... I wonder what's going on in

Hi Taz, The yellow-black background indicates that grasshopper was build in DEBUG mode. It used to be more subtle with the old icons, I'll have to come up with a less offensive colour scheme. I figured it would be rather important to be able to see if a version was DEBUG or RELEASE, since they te

baldino, In my test run your script generated negative R channel values which, at certain times, defaulted all colors to blue... Maybe you can normalize the strength values from 0 to 1 before you convert the data to a gradient. Then you wouldn't have to deal with any negative values. taz On N

Luis, Interesting stuff. Tying everything to the sun system is great. I'm not sure if this set-up is the interval approach you're already pursuing to achieve a gradient (I think it is similar), but a while back I tried to replicate the Rhino surface analysis tool with moderate success. Check o

Hi Luis, That's beautiful! It looks like you could go with some gradient controls as well :) The next version of Grasshopper will have Nurbs->Mesh tools, which includes all meshing settings Rhino offers. I also added a special Surface->Mesh component which creates a very simple quad-grid (with o
