Hello,

I have some points with a vector attribute, and I would like to transfer this attribute to other points that does not have it. Of course I know I can simply use the attribute transfer sop, but I am curious if it would be possible/easy to do in vex? I have looked around, but not really found any threads specifically on this topic.

Are there any vex-masters out there that can tell me if there is a way, and if yes, how?

Thanks,

Doug

Yes you can.

Theres a number of ways you can do it.

If you have the nodes with the two seperate sets of points wired into the wrangle, then a combination (assuming the sets of points are of different amounts) of a conditional and use of @opinput_yourattribute can do the job.

Also, if it's not possible to ‘wire’ in the points to the wrangle you can use a conditional(for same reason as mentioned before) along with the point or pointattrib function.

Maybe post your hip file for a specific suggestion.


Edit: @opinput1_yourattribute - where the number 1 is the input connected. Anything connected to the first input(0) doesn't need the @opinput indicator to access the attributes connected to the first input, except for in cases with some functions called where @opinput0, geoself or even 0 can be used as the argument.
