huge Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Hi everybody! trying to use my groups in vop with the "in group" node, but it returns always zero value... no prob to create groups, but impossible to use them after... I can see the groups when i MMB my node in the vop...I know that i can apply my vop (attribute binding tab) to a specified group but for more flexibility i need to work in only one vop node with all my groups i join my test file and hope somebody can help me! thanks by advance Best regards CREATE-USE-VOP-GROUP.hip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huge Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 oups!... I made an error in the file ( i plugged the id instead the ptnum in the vop, i've tried everything... ), but it doesn't matter ingroup output shows zero... i join the modified file thanks CREATE-USE-VOP-GROUP_002.hip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yesyes Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 is "add to group" node available in h14? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anim Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 you need to plug OpInput1 from geometryvopglobal1 to Filename input of In Group node, to be sampling the input geo for the groups you can as well use Bind VOP, with group_ prefix and group name, like group_group_2 CREATE-USE-VOP-GROUP_002_fix.hip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huge Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 hi Anim!! thanks a lot for the solution, it was not so obvious for me...and i dont really understand why the file name need to be connected to the first input of global... could you explain that to me??? this said, i realy preffer the bind way to import!!! simple and straight forward thanks again for your quick answer cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anim Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 it's like with a lot of geometry functions, you simply need to specify which geometry to work on this gives you the ability to check membership of any point to any group within any geometry instead of always assuming that you want to check current point on first input geometry as Bind does so Filename is geometry you want to sample, being it actual path to geometry file on disk or just handle of input geometry using OpInputn from Geometryvoplobal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
