Create groups from partially matching names.


Recommended Posts

Wondering if it is possible to create groups (to later use in a for each loop) from an incoming geo that has a bunch of names, some of which partially match. The idea would be to match the names that are "obviously" similar, like "midsole", "outsole" etc. I have had success with using a delete node to isolate groups using, "@name=*[Ll]ace* ", however, I'd like to find a way to do this without having to define or know what groupings are coming in. Maybe its something that is capable of finding matches above 3 characters and grouping them together? I'm not sure if that makes sense. Would love some ideas. Thank you in advance.
