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.

Closest Object

The Curve Nearest Object component in Grasshopper offers a powerful and unique capability: it allows multiple data types (e.g., points, curves, surfaces, and meshes) to be connected simultaneously as inputs. The component then determines the closest object to the specified curve, regardless of its type, and outputs it seamlessly.

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

Kangaroo Mesh Extraction

When using Kangaroo 2, identifying the mesh output among other results can be challenging. Here are two effective solutions

Loft vs Ruled Surface

Mathematically, the Loft and Ruled Surface components operate differently. Loft can process a list of curves, whereas Ruled Surface is limited to just two curves. However, when creating a surface between two curves, both components may yield valid results.
