The Point on Curve component helps the user create multiple points on a line/curve using user specified distance/ no. of points/ parameters obtained from other components.
One tool can be used to create of points on multiple lines with ability to control creation on each line individually.
Inputs
Lines
Takes a list of lines to create points on. Does work well with tree structure.
Absolute/Relative
Takes a value list or tree of value lists in which the following options are auto generated:
- Absolute- Enables the distance to be entered in absolute value.
- Relative- Enables the distance to be entered in proportion to the length of the line as relative values.
Reference Point
Attach a value list or a tree of value lists in which the following options are aut-generated.
- Start- Uses the start point of the line to measure the distance for creating the point.
- End- Uses the end point of the line to measure the distance for creating the point.
Point At
Takes a list or a tree of distance values either in relative or absolute terms.
Divisions
Enables creation of points by dividing a line/lines into number of equal user specified segments. Takes a value or a tree of values.
Parameters
Takes a list or tree of ‘parameters’ values that may be obtained from native grasshopper components like ‘Divide Distances’.
Control Each
Enables individual control for each line, the process of creating points.
Takes a Boolean toggle.
- True- enables controlling the process for each line separately.
- False- One set of values control the process for all the lines together.
Output
Log
Outputs warning/Errors if any.
Points On Curve
Outputs the points created by the component in a tree format.
Parameters
Outputs the parameters of the points created by the component in a tree format.
