Selecting Outer points

[hyperforce]

This is probably a very simple anwser and a beginner question, but I can't figure out how to do this (and yes I have checked the help file).

I have a polygon curve with a variable amount of points. What I want to do is delete the first and the last point with a delete node. But I can't seem to get the node to select the highest point number.

If anyone can give me a solution that would be greatly appreciated.

In the Pattern field you should just be able to put something like this:

0 `npoints(opinputpath(".", 0))-1`

It deletes the first point and the last point by getting the number of points coming in and subtracting 1 since the point numbering starts at 0.

Thanks, it works

you can simply use

0 $N

as a pattern

or delete by range and put

$N

instead of 2 in Select_of_ parameter
