displaying attributes

[David Gary]

Is there a way to display point/primitive attributes in the viewport?

For point attribute, i feed the uv attribute with the attribute i want

to display ( in a VOPnet) and i just click on Display texture coordinates in the viewport.

but how about the Primitive attributes for example?

any help appreciated

RMB on sop -> Spreadsheet...

[David Gary]

no, i mean in the 3d view...

Suppose You have vector attribute: MyVect

Temporarry add "point" sop

switch to "Add Texture" and replace

$MAPU with $MYVECTX

$MAPV with $MYVECTY

$MAPW with $MYVECTZ

Thank you but that's what i've just done (please re-read the first post).

So i was doing the right thing.

But what about displaying Primitive attributes? ( and detail/vertex attributes)

[AndrewVK]

Oops...sorry...

Stupid solution, but it works...

You can convert primitive attribute to point

attribute with help of "Attribute Promote" SOP

("First Match" mode)

[David Gary]

yes indeed . i thought of this solution too, but it displays too much

items on screen.

i was wondering if there was a built-in function/display option for that

but it seems that there isn't.

thk u anyway!
