Hi there,
I am importing some motion capture data, I am doing that by using an object merge with the “Object1” field set as:

“/obj/mocap_fbx/*/point1”

Using wildcards this way only the point inside every node are imported, leaving bones and other stuff out.
Now I want to do this, but excluding the fingers. Since every “finger” node has the word finger inside their name, and having a look at the http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini12.1/expressions/_patterns [sidefx.com] page, I tried this:

“obj/mocap_fbx/* ^Finger*/point1”

to get every node apart from the the ones that has “finger” at any point of their name, but it doesn't work, stating that ^Finger*/point1 is an invalid sop.

Am I getting the syntax wrong in here?

Kind Regards
Leon
