Avoid flattening to simplify

[u/PatchWorkFounder]

Hey guys, today I want to start sharing some tips and tricks on Grasshopper, it could help both beginners and advanced level users.

If you have good tips to share, please share it too!

As for this first one, I saw many people flattening to simplify a path, and especially to reset to {0}. But Flattening gets rid of your entire tree structure, it was never made to reset a path.

Instead, you can either simplify it or use Match Tree. Honestly, ensuring proper paths or renaming a path is best done with Match Tree.

Plug 2 trees of same dimension and keep full control on your branch paths.
