The new version of Grasshopper has overwritable variables. First, all the constants (e, pi, phi etc.) are declared, but if you then decide to use a variable of your own called e, pi or phi, the value will replace the constant.

Thank you Chris. I am really interested in implementation of math surfaces for parametric design.
I will explore it.
Hi Leonid,
Here is a definition I made awhile back to make several common parametric surfaces. It is of course quite similar to the one Vicente made. Many paths to the same goal!
Thanks very much.
I will try to experiment.
What the definition does is to create a grid of points in 3d space that corresponds to the shape of the surface, then i interpolate a surface through these points.
20 is the resolution of the surface. If i divide an interval in 20 steps, i end up w…
Vicente,
Thanks a lot for your explanation.
I haven't got the logic of building that kind of definition.
Why do we need the Addition component?
Why did you input 20 to the Range components?
Why did you input 1 to the Addition component?
What if I do…
Hi,
First you need to know the parametric equations and the uv domain you want to represent.
For example, i want to create an Enneper surface, i know the parametric equations are:
x = u*cos(v)-u^3/3*cos(3*v)
y = u^2*cos(2*v)
z = -u*sin(v)-u^(3)/3*si…
Hello Vicente!
Could you explain how to create math surfaces using functions components if I have a function expression.
I take the math function expressions from Wolfram's website and write them inside of a GH function component. But have no idea h…
i second that wish (admitting it is not top priority). once you got used to two-handed navigation/editing with mouse and spacemouse you start to miss it soon.
beside the funtionality of fluent 3d-naviagtion there are a couple of tricks you can do on…
I use 3dconnexion device to move around my word document and it really is good even for
this 2d application
A 3D mouse is very efficient in 2D also because it can fluently pan and zoom at the same time.
Given the extent of large definition, I think that this wish is legitimate.
Now regarding your arguing that this wish is less important than other stuff,…
I am not sure if that would really help considering the GH interface is a 2d workspace, unlike a 3d Rhino viewport. Also, GH has tonnes of more important functionality to be built in which are perhaps more 'mission critical' (remote control panel, c…
I concur ........ but give the man a chance ;-)
Wouldn't it be cool to use a 3D mouse to pan and zoom in the grasshopper workspace ?
(3D connexion, Astroid, and the like)

I think it is really amazing too, and far more useful than LEDAS's reverse kinematics in my opinion.
In days where AutoCad and even some of it's clones have sketch constraints, I think it's really time for Rhino to catch up.
That was the step they s…
