If you use Photoshop's batch processing and set up an action to re-size the image to a manageable size (50x50 pixels should be plenty big). Also, the script is written to read files named in the format of "bg0000.jpg" with the background images increasing sequentially so you should specify in Photoshop to save the resized images in that format. You place all the images in the sketch folder for the script and then update the script to reflect the number of images you have saved for reference. Oh, and this might be obvious but you need to download Processing (processing.org) if you haven't and run the script there.

Trimmed surfaces tend to not work well. I would warp a plane and then trim after you run the definition on the warped plane; it tends to give the best results, but it will require some trial and error if you need the hexagonal grid to line up to specific geometry borders...

Could that have anything to do with it? Should the surface be double curved? Do you have any suggestions as to what the initial surface should be? The final component has warnings saying

“Insufficient section curves could be constructed”

My initial surface is a distorted hexagonal shape. Could that have anything to do with it? Should the surface be double curved? Do you have any suggestions as to what the initial surface should be?

Does anyone have a successful Rhino file that they wouldn't mind sharing? I am an Architecture Student trying to use this definition as the structure for my design. Thanks! -Mauricio Hi I am trying to create the definition but seem to be running into all sorts of problems. Does anyone have a successful Rhino file that they wouldn’t mind sharing?
