Vertex Split surface node

Takes a vertex attribute and splits any point whose vertices differ by more than a specified tolerance at that attribute.

See also: Primitive Split

For each point in the input geometry, Vertex Split tests the specified attribute to see if it is within tolerance on each vertex sharing that point. For each group of vertices outside the tolerance, a new point will be created. The vertex attribute can then be optionally promoted to a point attribute.

This operation is useful for promoting vertex attributes to point attributes without either creating a lot of points or destroying the seams in the vertex attributes.
