Is it possible to modify N attributes with N iterations using AttribWr

[magneto]

Hi,

 

In the help it says no attributes are bound except detail attributes for read only but can you use getattribute/setattrib to accomplish such a task? If not then what's the use of this Run Over Numbers mode?

 

 

Thanks

yes, getattrib()/setattrib() should work

as well as vertex(), point(), prim(), detail() and essentially all cvex functions

it just doesn't bind any attribs other than detail as it is not iterating over anything and read only because you are running few instances of the code in parallel, so they would try to override each other, use setattrib() instead which provides additional modes like add, max, min, mult, toggle, append

Thanks anim are you able to create something like a smooth SOP with iterations? I was told this was purely to process specific elements in parallel but not a feedback loop.

that's correct, this is meant for speeding up smaller number of heavy operations that can benefit from parallel execution

so no feedback from elem to elem
