Polyextrude in a loop extrude distance by primitive attribute

[demoan666]

hi

 

i have a grid, with color on red channel (randomly varying value),  on certain primitives. now i want to extrude each primitive based ot their respective @Cd.r values. any thoughts? i would appreciate any help!

 

thanks

or don't use loop

just Poly Extrude in Individual Components mode, check Distance Scale in Local Attributes, put your prim attribute name in there, and play with Distance slider

the distance will be multiplied by values in Distance Scale attribute per component

As noted above, it is better to use the local extrude feature. I just wanted to show how to do it in loop. Local extruding (without loop) has better performance.

i agree, however, i am trying to understand the various loops, so thanks a lot
