calling an attribute to be used for reading texture's sequence numbers

[avak]

Hello,

I used connectivity SOP to create a class attribute for each closed primitives, so we have an attribute, class with integer number value assigned to it. then I have a uvquickshade to read a texture which its naming format is like this (color.#.jpg).

now I have a problem with how to read this attribute (class) to be used inside uvquickshade node to read # and load textures.Seems simple but when I add it like this : color.@class.jpg or color.$CLASS.jpg or color.`@class`.jpg it doesn't work. Thanks for your help

I am not sure if the uvquickshade is something that can run over each primitive, and I am not the best with Hscript (which is what you need for your string to work) however the workaround for this could be as follows:

in primwrangle:

s@texture = "yourpath."+itoa(prim(0,"class",@primnum))+".jpg";

then in a primvop put down a texture node, and connect uv from global to uv on texture node.

put down a bind and import the attribute "texture"

pipe the bind node into the map slot on the texture node.

I will try it now, Thanks

...Probably I am doing something wrong, 

I followed the steps but still not able to read textures,

remember you need to set the bind node to string.

I believe I did it Jesper

Should I connect the output of texture node to a bind export?
