Hi guys! Having lots of fun with Houdini lately
How do I go about grouping/selecting only those points (or those edges) that are the outer boundary of a primitive?
Thanks!

How to select points (or edges) at the edge of a primitive?

Hi Georg, hi Kuba,
thanks so much for the answers, yet in Kuba's VOP SOP (in which I nevertheless learn allot!) it doesn't work in all cases (i.e. points that have 4 neighbours can be border points too) and in Georg's GROUP SOP it just doesn't do it (even though I have a CLEAN and a FUSE prior in the network)…
What to do? Wouldn't it be interesting to write such a SOP in the main library?
What I did for now is to use AttribTransfer from the primitives at the other side of the border to spill over and colour the border points, then I group-select by colour.
Thanks for your time!
