Hi, I was trying to use a mesh of stone like this to replace the selected area of heightfield to create the texture of cliff.

assuming your uv attrib is on vertices
1. Vertex Split SOP
- Attributes: uv
- Promote To Point Attribute: On
2. Attribute Swap SOP
- Source: uv
- Destination: P
- Method: Swap (default, it will swap uv and P, so later you can just swap them back if needed)
- Method: Copy (if you want to keep uv values unchanged)

tamteThank you for your help! And I have another question. Now I successfully transfered both terrain mesh and stone mesh to uv space, and I use a transform node enlarge the terrain mesh. Is there any way I could tile the terrain mesh with stone mesh? (Repalce terrain mesh by stone mesh but keep the shape). Thanks!
seamlessly tile

Thanks! Detail Mesh works. However, when I combine cliff mesh and the original heightfield, half of the mesh is under the heightfield (image 1), I have tried to use peak (geometry node), but even with peak mode half the mesh is still under height field. And it also causes some discontinuities between different terrains (image 2). Is there anyway to completely cover all height fields with meshes, and make the edges look seamless?
