Hello dear professionals,  
Could you give me any ideas how can I group points like Grasshopper does it ?  
In Grasshopper it follows not the cluster logic. In the manner of speaking, it follows a chain logic  
So how can I reach this result in Dynamo ? I have some vision of this logic, but I’m afraid that only Python can help and I still didn’t learn it

> I think you need to switch your Geometry.DistanceTo inputs. You’re finding the shortest distance in the bottom list then pulling the item from the first list.

Hello, this is the solution

> @m.shcheblykin Thanks for sharing your files. I would group Points by its margin. it will group based off their proximity. Here is the DYN [For Maksym.dyn](https://forum.dynamobim.com/uploads/short-url/eUazw81UwvpWd4OeluPf4POeXSO.dyn) (42.6 KB)
