I have 4 primitive spheres sitting in a line, close enough to touch each other. Each sphere has a group name.
I'm doing some voronoi cut operations on a per object basis, then turning those cuts into curves.
I lose my group names somewhere in the process, so need to transfer them back from the original spheres, onto the newly created curves.
The trouble happens when I use a Transfer Groups SOP - The groups that get transferred bleed across onto the surrounding primitives, because they are so close / touching each other.
I kind of expected this to happen, as the transfer groups sop is using a distance to transfer from / to.
How can I transfer the groups from the original spheres, back onto the curves without the groups bleeding into each other?
Test scene attached.

Hi KaiStavginski, thanks for this it works well.
I shouldn't have used the for each loop in the example sorry!
I was trying to make a simplified version of my master scene, but didn't realise using a for each loop would solve that particular issue!
For my master scene I am doing the same thing, but I am unable to do that with a for each loop.
Without the for each loop, I had the thought of maybe using the explode sop to spread the parts away from each other, then transfer groups, then somehow undo the explode, or transform the pieces back to their original position?
Although with that technique, I wasn't able to work out how to explode the cut pieces together as whole balls, rather each curve would spread apart individually.
Any ideas?

aha…gotcha..you can't beat me!!! Here I've moved groups 2/4 up to prove no points were missed and no extra points were snagged.
Note:
- Clean must have consolidate disabled.
- Ends, unroll with shared points, not New.
- i left the promo to points but you can change it to edges, will still work as long as you also change the test transform to edges.
