hi,

i am very new to houdini (coming from softimage)…and maybe this was asked many times before…
i am experimenting with the vellum solver and i put a pop-wind force and a pop attract force in it.
now i want to restrict this pop forces to a some bounds (bounding box, bounding sphere, etc) so it can effect only some specific parts of the geometry…
also i want the ability to animate this bounding box. in this pop forces nodes there are no options to limit its behaviour to bounds…
can someone give me a hint how to achieve this?
