bentway23 Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Hullo--I'm having an issue with something that I suspect can be easy--I'm making branching splines (vein-like) using find shortest path. I want the pscales to be biggest in the middle of the branches and smaller at the ends (like remapping a curveu on a single line). The closest I've come is shortest path-->fuse-->polypath-->edge transport from point 0 (which seems to default to a central point with branching), promoting @dist to min/max details, and fitting the dist between those to use as my 0-1 which I remap. This works great for the farthest points in the branches, but for the shorter branches the end pscales don't go to 0. I tried setting end points to @pscale = 0 and attrib blurring it, but that didn't do the trick. I assume this is the same trick to make branching/tree sweeps on L-systems, but it's eluding me. What am I missing? Here is the line alone and with spheres copied on points to visualize pscales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamagochy Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 You need to have unique prims per branch. Polypath connect prims and create one and your setup doesnt work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentway23 Posted May 7, 2023 Author Share Posted May 7, 2023 This was helpful, thanks. I was actually able to accomplish this with some attribute promoting and fitting of the cost attributes output by the find shortest paths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
