GUÍA DEL USUARIO
INTRODUCCIÓN
Drakon es un plug-in de Rhino y Grasshopper para la creación de joyas.
Diseñado por componentes totalmente paramétricos que combinados permiten posibilidades ilimitadas para piezas de joyería interactivas. Esta guía del usuario proporciona una documentación extendida para las opciones de cada componente.
Una vez que el plug-in se carga en Grasshopper, aparecerá una nueva pestaña. La pestaña Drakon se divide en diferentes menús de categoría y cada uno contiene varios componentes. Después de hacer clic con el botón izquierdo en la herramienta, se cargará en Gh y desde aquí podremos comenzar a personalizar cada una para crear combinaciones únicas y generar posibilidades ilimitadas. Cada constructor sigue un proceso muy simple, desde un lado necesita valores de entrada para poder generar resultados de salida.
Estos componentes nos permiten ingresar valores en el lado izquierdo que se utilizan para generar los resultados de salida. El flujo de trabajo consiste en combinar los diferentes componentes entre ellos, generando piezas de joyería completamente paramétricas. Las piezas se pueden construir de tal manera que estar siempre conectado permite cambiar cada detalle sobre la marcha y adaptar fácilmente todo el modelo, manteniendo las medidas y proporciones del diseño.
