Hello

after polyfill (gives round shape bottom) wanted to flatten points them being on one line
if i know numbers of them i think is it correctly or is there a better way if about Wrangle?
if(@ptnum >= 840)
if(@ptnum <= 1035)
@P.y = -2.08414;
else if doing it with VOPs how to connect group to @P.y if setattrib doesn't even have right outputs and them to global output?

Thanks

Put the point selection in the group field of the attribute wrangle.

But wouldn't it be easier to change the settings on the polyfill to output a flat bottom to begin with?

turn OFF Deform Patch on the PolyFill - that should make a flat surface.

Thanks, I didn't remember what the setting was called. I just knew there was one.

I think the deform should by default be off, it's very annoying and rarely used…just me.
