jmquintela Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 (edited) Hello!, I'm creating an attributte to group only the tips of this extrusions ...I used the front group that polyextrude creates to transfer an attribute to the root.. it's working so far buut the problem is those areas where the attribute of some tips gets to other nearby tips ... I could put a smaller blend value but still for thos tips that are to near I get this problems, of course I understand that the attributte transer is just creating a blend radius without any topology consideration... I was trying to look for some technique to transfer attributte to points that are topological connected, without any luck so far. any ideas?

Sepu Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Can you share the .hip file it will be a lot easier to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davpe Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 as far as I can see all points in your model are topologicaly connected. so that wouldn't help you really. also, I don't understand the purpose of using attribute transfer here. anyway, if you already have a front face extrusion group, try turning that into an attribute (in wrangle SOP or pointVOP or attribCreate SOP). then blur it enough so nearby points get infected (Smooth SOP) and then create another group out of that (group SOP). and you're done I guess.

JDee Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Or you can convert your front group from primitives to points and then create another group from the points using Edge Depth , so it's kinda growing your selection from the tips. PS. They should add something like "Edge distance" in attribute transfer, one day... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmquintela Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 Hi Sepu!, of course, I attached the hip on the post now .. thanks for the help ! devpe: yes I guess that could solve the problem, but I was curious about how to transfer attributes across connected points , I guess that softtransforms does that kind of logic JDee: great! I was thinking on something like that but didn't know how to do it, I'll try that !, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmquintela Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 Yep the edge depth did the trick nicely! thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
