How to use fancy wire display in Grasshopper
- [Narrator] In this video, we'll talk about some different options for how we ask Grasshopper to display the connections between components. This connections are also known as wires. So, I'm working in the exercise file displaymodes.GH. Here, we've got a definition that takes a set of curves in Rhino. And let's go to Rhino, and let's expand our top Viewpoint. Just zoom out a little bit, and talk about what's going on here. So, we've got a definition that takes a set of curves, merges them together deleting the parts that intersect, breaks them back apart, and draws them out as straight line segments. So, that's the gist of what our definition is doing here. What I want to focus on though is the way that we're displaying these connections, these wires in grasshopper.
