Creating a parametric hexagonal tile

- [Narrator] In this video,…I'm going to flesh out the steps of our algorithm…for creating a simple parametric hexagonal tile.…I'll be working in the Rhino file hex-tiling.3dm.…So I've gone ahead and expanded the Simple Custom Tile layer…and made sure I toggled on the Symmetry Diagram layers…and the Custom Truchet Shapes layer.…In Grasshopper,…I've got the file 0080-simple-custom-tile.gh open.…And, now we can go ahead, and just dive in,…and start fleshing out our algorithm.…So, I'm going to tackle these first three steps.…

And we can just select these other ones,…and slide 'em on down in our definition for later.…Give myself a little more space, here.…First thing I need to do is get the tile shapes.…And, just as an example,…I'm going to use the geometry that I have…in my Custom Truchet Shapes layer.…So that is this rectangle, this oval,…and these two squiggly lines.…And, so, for those, I'm going to make three geometry inputs.…

And I'm just going to right-click and label these…one for the top.…One for the upper-right.…
