GH_Version: 0.7.x
Here are two components for adding a hexagon pattern and diagrid pattern over a surface. These components were created mostly as an exercise to translate from a .net component within grasshopper to a custom component.
Download the file from the link above and place into your C:\Program Files\Rhinoceros 4.0\Plug-Ins\Grasshopper\Components or equivalent (depending on your installation).
You can find the components in Surface / Utilities.
If you want to see inside of this component, you can check out the Visual Studio project by downloading this file. Hopefully others can learn and improve on the component set.
P.S. Anyone is welcome to submit some better icons than the ones posted above!

Thank you for a really nice component. Did you also test it with Rhino 5? It works with Rhino 4 but I can not see the component in RH5 grasshopper…

I got lazy and downloaded your components – very nice to have.
Anyways, it seems that when you have a surface like a tube (which I do) when the grid wraps around meets itself it is left incomplete. Judging from what’s left over I imagine it could be closed….is there a way to do it with your component?
