A first pass at creating a vector reflection component.

GEODEX 2.0
GEODEX 2.0

The relaunch of GEODEX includes a complete overhaul of the component structure.
All functions now use range inputs for evaulating the curve functions allowing the user to sample the curves at any specific points.
All equations have been reworked and repaired, fixing several errors and cleaning up the input structure.
New polar equations have been added.

GH-Excel Suite v0-05
GH-Excel Suite v0-05

Version 0-05 has introduced two major changes in addition to a few general cleanups of the interface and internal workflow.

The first major update is a “LIVE” component now allows for updates in excel to be registered in grasshopper in real time without the need for a timer component in grasshopper.

The second major update is the output of excel formatting back intro grasshopper via the “read XL” components, meaning formatting data, colors, text size, etc. can now be brought into the grasshopper workspace and edited in excel.

Radial Hexagon
Radial Hexagon

The Radial Hexagon component mimics the setup of the radial grid component in grasshopper and creates a hexagonal cell patterning radially about the center of a user specified plane.   platform: Grasshopper compatibility: (Grasshopper Build 0.8.011)  type: vbComponents function: Surface Evaluation  radialHexagon.ghx (download) *  

Gh-OOo update

The Gh-OOo component has been updated to include the ability to stream data to charts. http://neoarchaic.net/2011/02/gh-ooo_suite/

GH-OOo / GH-XL updated

For both the GH-OOo and GH-XL toolsets errors with consistency between the X and Y inputs among components.  Now X always references the column position and Y the rows.  Additionally if "byColumn" inputs are true all components will now either read or write by stepping down a column. GH-OOo v0-001 GH-XL v0-04

GH-Excel Update

A correction has been made to fix the output from the streaming components, flipping the X and Y outputs to be consistent with the inputs.

GH-Excel Update

I have posted an update to the file “GH-Excel_v0-02″ which adds a bit of new functionality and fixes a few errors.

The break up

To help clarify the distinction between tools and projects, my portfolio of work will now be located at NeoArchaic.com and all Grasshopper, Rhinoscript tools, etc. will still be located at NeoArchaic.net.  .Net will now host only tools and references, and .Com will contain projects, blog, and experiments.  This will hopefully help make access to content [...]
