Hello,

I am learning Houdini for the last two weeks. I am quite impressed with many new possibilities, but I am also suffering some basic tools I was using in other application.
I am looking for an equivalent of:
- “center” tool, that would center any geometry at the origin
- “merge polygon” tool, that would allow me to merge triangles into a four (or more) points polygons.
Are there any good nodes that will help me?

Regards - Kamil.

For center tool, check the help for the Transform SOP [sidefx.com]. There are a bunch of local variables ($CEX,$CEY,$CEZ, $SIZEX … , $XMIN, $XMAX … etc) which can be used to do exactly what you need.
