    Basic Steps

    Introduction to interface and navigation of GenerativeComponents with a short exercise to create a Point Array

     GCT_PointArray(PointReplicaton)

    This tutorial is dedicated to learn some basic tools inside GenerativeComponents. It will help get you familiar with some functions and replication principles.You can download the GCT file that I used in the tutorial below.

    Build a 3D Feature Type (adaptable Component) using LawCurve as a input control

    Learn how to create a 3d Feature Type (Adaptable Component) using some features inside GC. 

     (1st Part)

    GCT File

    Learn how to create a point using sine function and populate a component By Default using some functions.

     (2nd Part)

     

    GC & Excel

    This tutorial is dedicated to learn how to import and export data from GC and Excel. This tool its very useful to add more variation to your designs and have more control over your file.

    It consist in 3 parts, the 1st part shows how to create a Feature Type (Adaptable Component) using a Solid, the 2nd part teaches how to replicate this Feature using different options of replication (important, in this section you will learn how to load the Excel feature). The 3rd part shows how to import and export Data from Excel and GC to modify the component replicated in the 2nd part.

    Files_Excel Data File, GCT Component & GCT Replication

    1st Part_ Basic Feature Type_Solid 

    2nd Part_Replication_Load Excel Feature

    3rd Part_Export and Import Data from Excel and GC

     

    Write a Function

    This tutorial is dedicated to show how to create some connections between to elements using Line Feature ByFunction. It's a good example for start learning how to write conditions and functions in GC and add more complexity to your designs.
