hello

I'm trying to avoid using point sop a lot because of speed issue and other stuff and trying to do it in Attribute wrangler and A vop.
(there was rumors about the making point sop multi threaded in H15, but I don't see any difference)

to replicate the adding edge force, I'm using a standard subtracting the next point from previous point and to feed into the N parameter.
I always get the unwanted twisted normal for the last point, so I use delete sop to delete the last point and I get a clean edge normal flow.

I wonder If I'm doing it efficiently or there is better way to do force things in wranglers or vops?!

thank you

Use the Poly Frame Sop… this will give you the tangentu which is what you are looking for and without the funky normal at the end point

I think polyframe sop doesn't give the desired normal as the way I described.
I gives tangent U and V and normal perpendicular at the joint.

if you want exactly along the curve, you can account for the end point with an if statement

PolyFrame does a better job than Point edge force. Just in polyframe you should toggle off Normal Name and put N in Tangent Name.
