It may indeed be possible to extract the code. Since it appears to be a Parametric function, of the type used in K3dSurf. I suspect it could be written in the following fashion, Which in this example creates a Torus.
X():(1+ 0.5*cos(u))*cos(v) Y():0.5*sin(u) Z():(1+ 0.5*cos(u))*sin(v) [u]:0, 2*pi [v]:0, 2*pi Then it could simply be displayed in mathsurface.qhx created by the talented "visose" http://groups.google.com/group/grasshopper3d/browse_thread/thread/fde34cc34beb0921/b739abb7cbedf85c?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=visose#b739abb7cbedf85c If you go: http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/RhombicSpirallohedra/ click on "show source code", followed by "show initialization code" On Mar 14, 8:11 pm, damien_alomar <[email protected]> wrote: > The Rhino math plugin really doesn't have an interface that you can > work with (programing interface not UI), and since I'm rather > unfamiliar with math lab code I'm not sure how similar they are.
