PARAM-O Minimum Accuracy of 10mm?

Anonymous — Thu, 25 May 2023 07:07:22 GMT

Hello,

A quick question re: units in Param-o.

It seams that the smallest unit that the Length parameter etc. can go down to is 0.01 which is equal to 10mm?

Not quite sure how to get it down to 1mm?

Seems silly that it wouldn't have this level of accuracy like Grasshopper or GDL.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Jarrod

I haven't got round to playing with PO yet but as a suggestion can you apply an xyz scaling factor to the output e.g. model with 1 unit = 1mm and then scale the output by 0.001?

This has been picked up elsewhere and is being investigated at GS.

It seems to take that 0,001 value though, and as a step too. It's just not showing up.
With lenght node and with a stepping of 0,001, I had to click ten times the arrow keys until 0,01 showed up. And the resulting element acted visually accordingly.

So that makes me think it's just a user dialog interface issue.
