Group Delete geometry node

Deletes groups of points, primitives, edges, or vertices according to patterns.

On this page
Since 16.0

Overview

This operator removes groups of points, primitives, edges, or vertices. It removes only the group, not the points or primitives themselves, however.

Patterns like * can be used to quickly clean up extra groups from geometry.

Inputs

Source geometry

The geometry from which to remove the groups.

Parameters

Number of Deletions

The number of deletion rules to apply.

Enable

Enable deletion of the specified groups.

Group Type

If set to any, all group types whose name match the pattern will be removed. Otherwise, it only removes those groups of the same type as this field.

Group Names

A space separated list of groups to remove. * can be used as a wild card to match many groups at once.

Delete Unused Groups

Remove any groups that are empty.

Selection Group

The group to use as the output selection. When the highlight flag is enabled for this node, this group will be the output selection used by later modeling tools (if it exists).

Selection Group Type

The type of elements referenced in the Selection Group field.
