Sorry I have a question about the division of a surface. You said that is really complicated to make the same area pieces of this surface, but is there a way? 😕 I am struggling with this problem and I need solution in order to divide some much complicated one where the pieces should be the same or close to the same. Thanks a lot! 🙂
Zlata Tosic if it's a four sided surface you can possibly reconstruct a grid using a series of Construct Domains. But flattening it back into reading as one list the way you want it to may be quite a task... any chance you can show me?
Ok, so I wanted it to be 4 sided surface. I am writing a paper for a conference and I want to reconstruct Cathedral Bazilika of Oscar Niemeyer in grasshopper and compare it to some more standard used program such as Auto Cad. The goal is to show the advantages and possibilities of designing in this program. Part of reconstruction is done in Rhino, because it was easier, but by analyzing, I noticed that the surface (which is the part of revolved Hyperboloid) is made of the same parts. Firstly I thought that it wouldn't be that obvious that my drawing doesn't have the some parts and that I could neglect the small difference, but it was visible because of the nature of the surface. It would help me a lot if I could make them almost the same so that the reconstruction looks more precise. By the way I don't need pieces to be flat. I post here the link of the picture in order for you to see what I mean and to understand the problem If I failed to explain it. Appreciate your help! :) Picture of the object: l7.alamy.com/zooms/112a32d360f54e86a6ec6273624ad3d5/brazil-brasilia-nocturnal-view-of-the-cathedral-metropolitana-nossa-dcnhfj.jpg Picture of the segments, zoomed look: l7.alamy.com/zooms/e217678c4d434499820f9f1b870e00ba/the-metropolitan-cathedral-by-architect-oscar-niemeyer-brasilia-brazil-b15tch.jpg
Check this video out: ruclips.net/video/BUtMYC7QV7Q/видео.html You will have to do this with a Series node to generate each part of the grid. This is only if every subdivision MUST be the same length along the surface. The downside is that you won't have panels subdivided into groups like the DivDom2/Isotrim nodes. You would be better off doing your U subdivisions separate from you V subdivisions.
Thank you so much ! I've been trying to do this for hours haha

Thank you a lot for your cooperation, I think the second solution is more appropriate but I will try bought.
