[Grasshopper] How to use Mesh|Plane to obtain the intersection curve between a mesh and a plane Grasshopper component EN

This article explains how to use Mesh|Plane to obtain the intersection curve between a mesh and a plane.

Mesh|Plane1
Mesh|Plane2

On the Grasshopper, it is represented by either of the two above.

Extracting a curve where a mesh intersects a plane or a plane surface

Mesh|Plane can be used to extract a curve where a mesh intersects a plane or a plane surface.

In this tutorial, we will use the mesh above.

Basic usage of Mesh|Plane

Basic usage of Mesh|Plane

Components used: (1) Mesh (2) XY Plane (3) Mesh|Plane

This is the basic usage of Mesh|Plane.

Connect a mesh to Mesh|Plane(M).

Connect a plane or a plane surface to Mesh|Plane(P).

In this case, we will use XY Plane to create a plane.

The curve at the intersection of the mesh and the plane can be extracted

The curve at the intersection of the mesh and the plane can now be extracted.

Can be performed on a surface instead of a plane

Can be performed on a surface instead of a plane

Components used: (1) Mesh ( 2 ) Surface (3) Mesh|Plane

The extraction can be performed not only on a plane but also on a plane surface.

In this case, a surface set in Surface is connected to Mesh|Plane(P).

the curve where the mesh and surface intersect are extracted

Then the curve where the mesh and surface intersect are extracted.
