Compare Path

Have you ever struggled with mismatched branch numbers when using components like Loft in Grasshopper? This common challenge can make it time-consuming to ensure consistency across your workflow. In this example, the Compare Path component provides a simple solution to compare and match paths, saving time and reducing errors. This technique could also be used as a cluster to streamline your workflows in the future.

Auto Swatch

The Metahopper plugin includes a special component called Auto Swatch, which generates a generic color swatch.

Automatic Make2D

The Make2D component generates a projection drawing from input geometry. However, unlike most Grasshopper components, it does not automatically calculate outputs.

Clipped Remap

Ever wondered about the use case of the clipped output in the "Remap Numbers" component? It ensures that values outside the "Source" domain are clipped to the minimum and maximum limits of the "Target" domain.

Curve Evaluation

There are several ways to find the midpoint of a curve, but they may not work in exactly the same way. Below are four simple methods to evaluate a curve at a 0.5 ratio.

Curve Seam

You can adjust the seam of a closed curve using the "Seam" component. As shown in the example, by changing the seam location of two rectangles, the connection of their division points (visualized as lines) also changes.

Custom Preview

The "Custom Preview" component includes an additional option to select specific target viewports. To access this feature, right-click on the component's icon to open its menu.

Group Toggle

This is a special component from the Metahopper plugin—a simple button with no inputs or outputs. To use it, add the button to a group of components. Pressing the button enables or disables all other components in the group.

Interpolate Data

The Interpolate Data component is a powerful yet often overlooked tool among computational designers. It allows you to interpolate through a list of input data and supports various data types, including numbers, points, vectors, and colors. Additionally, you can select from four interpolation modes—Block, Linear, Cubic, and Catmull—via the component's menu.

Jump Component

Ever found yourself switching back and forth between two parts of your algorithm, struggling to locate sliders or inputs? The 'Jump' component in Grasshopper is here to help

Midpoint

Want to find the true middle of a curve? Here’s the catch: when you reparameterize a curve, the midpoint you get is not based on the actual length – it’s just the middle of the normalized parameter range (0 to 1)! If you want the real halfway point, you need to use the Evaluate Length component and input Length / 2 to get the precise location based on the actual geometry.
