Hi All,
Is there an elegant way to calculate and display the intersection between 2 objects. From which I could generate some points. I have done it before using the area and curvature attributes which gave me a colour attribute via vop sops but I was thinking maybe there's a more elegant way of doing it.
ie in the simple scene I have a sphere and grid and all I want is points to be generated or an attribute that can be used, where the sphere and the grid intersect each other.
