I'm trying to get characters from a Font SOP to be selected as separate pieces and used randomly in a copy to points SOP.

Any help on how to approach something like this?!

As if by magic…

Thanks. Can ask you to quickly summarize what the expressions are doing? Especially the one in in the Font SOP, and the role of -1?!

Hey coccosoids,

For the -1, it refers to the spare input. By doing that, you can refer to the node Block Begin “CC” and access the point attribute “font” (attribute declare in the previous for each loop).
