| Screen Map (Map) Maps the points to an active viewport coordinates.Update by double clicking OR boolean input change OR the timer. | |
| Text Curves (TextC) Text to curves. |
Outputs
| Data Output (SDDataOutput) Define a data output to be accessed from ShapeDiver's viewer API | |
| Export Download (SDExportDownload) Use this component to define an export which can be downloaded from ShapeDiver's viewer | |
| Export Email (SDExportEmail) Use this component to define an export to be sent by email | |
| Properties Export (SDPropertiesExport) Use this component to define properties of objects to export (name, layer, object color, plot color, plot weight). | |
| Set Properties (SDSetProperties) Sets properties of an object, e.g. for defining layer and color of objects to export. |
JSON
| JSONAccess (SDJSONAccess) Allows access to individual properties of an object output by a ShapeDiverJSONParse component. | |
| JSONConstruct (SDJSONConstruct) Construct a JSON object which can be fed into a ShapeDiverDataOutputComponent. | |
| JSONConvert (SDJSONConvert) Convenience component for converting parsed JSON objects to common Grasshopper data types. As an example, arrays of 2 or 3 numbers are converted to points. | |
| JSONParse (SDJSONParse) Parses a JSON string into a custom object whose members can be accessed using ShapeDiverJSONAccess components. |
Textures
| Brep Or Mesh Split (SDBrepSplit) Splits breps or meshes into groups of faces for texturing. Faces will be grouped by their normal vector. In case of meshes, texture coordinates will be defined as well. | |
| Extract Mesh UVs (SDExtractMeshUVs) Extract the UV coordinates of the mesh vertices, if they exist. | |
| Texture Transform (SDTextureTransform) Transform texture coordinates of meshes. Can also be used to randomly shift texture coordinates. |
Images
| Image Sampler (SDImageSampler) Samples a bitmap image created with the ShapeDiver image input component or Squid. | |
