LaidlawFX Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I wanted to try and do some string edits to primitive and point groups. I can use the group node to do my work but it requires several group nodes. I was wondering if there is a means to edit group names via expressions, or code of some sorts? Also what is a group if it is not an attribute? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As to what they really are... looks like they're the thing called doubly linked list in C++. They are not attributes, which might be a reason they are slow and kind of tricky (how long we were waiting for groups support in Python..?). Things are changing though, seems like they become something else in H12... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
