Hello,

It scares me that I allready manage to build a stadium in houdini, but I can't resolve simple problem like this one.
How can I dissolve a point and keep the shape like in this image.

(I did an edge dissolve to illustrate the result I'm looking for, but in practice all I have is a group of point)

There's probably an easier way, but the first thing that comes to mind is to convert the point group to an edge group using Group Promote, create a group of unshared edges with the option on Group Create (remember to turn off Base Group), then subtract that group from the first group with Group Combine. Then, you can use Dissolve.
Writing code for fun and profit since... 2005? Wow, I'm getting old.
