This topic provides a reference table for all automatic type conversions to triangle, sorted by merit.

Direct Conversions

This section lists all direct conversions to the triangle type. A 'Direct' conversion indicates a relation between very related types, such as integers and numbers, or 2D and 3D points. Though note that even these conversions can fail due to out-of-bounds issues, or be narrowing due to reduction.

Plausible Conversions

This section lists all plausible conversions to the triangle type. A 'Plausible' conversion indicates a non-straightforward, but a still reasonable conversion between two types that share a salient quality, or where one is an obvious sub-type of the other. For example curves and intervals, or points and planes. Any plausible conversion can also be achieved through the explicit use of standard components.

Strange Conversions

This section lists all strange conversions to the triangle type. A 'Strange' conversion indicates a peculiar, but occasionally sensible, translation between types. However, it is equally likely that the conversion was not intended and thus represents a mistake in the algorithm design, which is why this conversion level is the default for showing conversion warnings in the Grasshopper interface. Examples in this category include the conversion between colours and booleans, or between circles and triangles. Any strange conversion can also be achieved through the explicit use of standard components.
