Pilou,

Thanks for the link....Yery Cool!

Here's a new NE generated screen transition

Hello

whith node random_obj i have this


For simulate different gaps: display random number of objects on their positions from a collection
Node random Obj is existing
not yet exactly that i wish :) the gaps 1 3 1 1 1 2 1 result must be on each object

but it's more like that i wish :)
A random gab between each object selected!

Classic Random
Move is existing
Display is existing

Not sure about the "one by one"...and the "loop / return"



Does this is possible ? A sort of random gab distribution between each object selected!

For make some variation of this follow where gabs are regular except on the front corner! ;)

This link looks interesting, but have no time to study it.

Here is recent random gap code from Blender:

Yes but i want make it with Elephant! :)

And more generally find how to make or simulate a "loop" for next or similar ...

I have something but i must build each object...
so no loop...but a big graphic of nodes :)

A trivial question : how make the same than Clone for Object but for a simple value given by a cursor ?
(so given this value to different things...duplicate ..for avoid to move the cursor many times)

I can play with general thickness and "one by one" placement

I wish only one cursor for the placement of all objects!

So wanted a node who deal with the numeric value of the cursor (surely existing...) and dispatch it after a treatment so multibranching...

PS No simple "Box" node ? I ha extruded a rectangle but...

I believe that i have found something as arborescence working! :)
Pink & pale green links can be multiple from the start!

Only one cursor, any numbers of objects with different regulates! (of course i must make each object after the cursor... )

but that will work! :) here only 2 volumes and Points for test...

Does it existing somewhere list of nodes with examples result ?

Hi Pilou,

As far as I know, there is no list of nodes with examples result, other than scattered examples in this thread.
I did do 2 pages on the Points Array Node, and MathPts Array Node. (unfinished...)

As you have doubtless seen, I did do graphics of the Menus, in MS Word last winter.

Have no time now, to check out your new node program:-(

This last node is just test ...no special utility except for me for explore some strategies :)

No Box as volume ? This is curious!

In fact there is a "native" node "Progression" ! :D (arithmetic & Geometric)

And the "loop" is include inside the node...so only one volume is necessary at the start!
No need headaches for make loop structure! :) (for the moment)
Next step will be the random gap and from a given list!

Curseur = Cursor, Bouge = Move, Sélectionné = Selected, Pas à Pas = Step by Step
Objets = Objects, Vers = Out, Facteur = Factor, Nombre = Number, Sortie = OutPut
Titre = Tittle

But normally your must be in English...

Cool! There is an Import CVS Nodes! :) http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=9358.1

Not yet find how use to it with any Selected Object(s) (for have the Input "Pinky" links)

But works fine with generic objects :)



Cylindre = Cylinder, Vers = Out, Sortie = OutPut
Centre = Center, Rayon = Radius, Hauteur = Height

It was trivial but the node ExtractPts is not in the classic Elephant but in the "extention" : http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=9358.1

So we can take now any object(s)! :)
And any sort of gaps but by external tricks (Excel or similar spreadsheet)
...wished of course an internal one...but that is better than nothing! :)

Allways not found the generic "Box" if existing ???
so use here a selected before drawn one!



Extraire = ExtractPts
Bouge = Move, Sélectionné = Selected,
Objets = Objects, Vers = Out, Sortie = OutPut

next will be the "internal" random gap...without Excel...
...and of course random size of the boxes!

For the fun...




Curseur = Cursor, SphèrePts= SpherePts, Nombre = Number,
Centre = Center, Vers = Out, Sortie = OutPut

So I have the total control about size, gaps position for object(s) but with 2 external csv files!
So not yet that i want : the result is good but not the method wanted! :)

Seems node Scale has priority to the node Move!

(always a pity that a repository of nodes don't existing...for see how each node is working)
I surely make it in next months because it's pretty hard to random test each one by one... :)





Bouge = Move, Sélectionné = Selected, Extraire = Extract
Objets = Objects, Vers = Out, Nombre = Number, Sortie = OutPut

Another strategy
No total control (because random) but cool result! :)





Sélectionné = Selected, Curseur = Slider, Objets de Base = Base Objects, Différence = Difference
Soustracteurs = Substractors, Bouge = Move, Objets = Objects, De = In, Vers = Out, Sortie = OutPut

Works as aspected :)

Looking Good, Pilou,

I'm delighted to see that you have caught the bug (Elephantitus: pathological mania for NodeEditor)

Here's something that I did with NE, that made me think of you
& your enduring enthusiasm for TopMod.



Keep going with Noding; the possibilities are endless

ah yes, the golden age! ;) I had believed that was one of my old images! :)

Cool adaptation of the crazzy TopMod!

PS You have keept all "nodes" of your graphic images ?

PSS I had the virus for a long time but it was sleeping! :)
http://moiscript.weebly.com/elephant-systegraveme-nodal.html

I will need your help in few month when i will make the repository of the English/ French Elephant nodes composants!
(+ a very little example)

Because many nodes are always a mystery for me...and I believe that will be useful for someones!
(something more modest like that... http://rhino.github.io/#System

Sure endless when you see that! :) https://www.grasshopper3d.com/page/tutorials-1
