Is this a Sweep bug?


Recommended Posts

I've been trying to switch the input for a Sweep SOP between a Null SOP and several Curve SOPs to disable/generate a bunch of profiled lines.

 

However, on switching to the Null SOP, the Sweep SOP still produces geometry (that's handled by other nodes further downstream) even though the input contains no geometry (I middle mouse clicked on the Switch to confirm this).

 

One solution I could find was to refresh the Sweep SOP by double clicking on Bypass, then it decides that there is no geometry coming in and accordingly produces no output. However, I have to do this each time the Null is switched to.

 

The other solution is to have a second switch after the Sweep and switch to the Null there. I don't know why this has to be a workaround, it feels a little less intuitive than just switching the input of the Sweep to a Null.

 

Anyone else encountered this?
