hito2501 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Hello please tell me - how to transport dynamically changes the value of an attribute from one branch to another? such as coordinates of a moving point, or the total number of points of an object. when I do the standard "paste copied references" I get the attribute value for the current branch and not the reference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hito2501 Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 results achieved through the attribute transfer but I think this is not the best option ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjeeds Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 If you have the same point count/topology in the two branches you could use AttribCopy, for number of points you'd use the npoints() expression and to get a specific point's data you can use the point() expression or an ImportAttribute in VOPs.

I have not the same point count/topology in the two branches my example: two identical lines - one constant, the other changes its length by a node "carve". necessary to transfer the value of the total number of points from one branch to the second but it can also be a situation when you need to transfer the dynamic data between completely different geometries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zarti Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 if you need it as an attribute and that value is something 'unique' , create a Detail class attribute and refer to it from anywhere .. -- ( H11 file . switch from 1 to 0 on 'switch1' node to see another application ..
