setting up if functions, for duplicated modules on a procedural house model

[danelliff]

Hi, I am very much a novice to Houdini, at present I am trying to create a a procedurally modelled house the for a scene/environment I am creating

Is there a way I can say/command Houdini to bbox a specific point from a resample node's length to the opposite end of the target geo? Would this need to be an if function in vex or is it possible to write if functions within a node's parameters and channels, eg, resample, transform etc.  hopefully my description below can help clarify my request, thank you for reading, and if you need more clarity please say

many thanks , Dan

I've been trying to find a solution myself, however i am not having much luck

string group []= detailintrinsic(0,"windowgoup");
i@curvelength = npoints(1);
v@fronthouse = getbbox_max(2,"windowgroup");

if (i@curvelength < 1){
@P = v@fronthouse;
}
any help would be much appreciated
