https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Parametric-design/Working-with-large-numbers-of-options/m-p/601600#M1967 <P>Hi, I'm trying to make a script where Grasshopper will populate a Zone with objects based on data in a spreadsheet. Unfortunately there are hundreds of potential objects that could be required, so I'll need to access all of these within the script.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>As Grasshopper doesn't let me pick objects dynamically, I'm struggling to find a way to deal with large numbers of objects efficiently - can't see a way round scripts that look a bit like this. Does anyone have any great ideas of how this could be made more manageable and streamlined?</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Thanks</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="derekjackson_0-1714124366665.png" style="width: 999px;"><img src="https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/60138i09FF10EC28035C8B/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="derekjackson_0-1714124366665.png" alt="derekjackson_0-1714124366665.png" /></span></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><FONT face="courier new,courier" color="grey">Operating system used: <EM>Windows </EM></FONT></P> Thu, 02 May 2024 02:13:11 GMT derekjackson 2024-05-02T02:13:11Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Parametric-design/Working-with-large-numbers-of-options/m-p/601600#M1967 <P>Hi, I'm trying to make a script where Grasshopper will populate a Zone with objects based on data in a spreadsheet.
