Hey guys. I made a primitve group in SOPs and in a pop network I want to apply drag only to the particles inside that group. How can I do that? Thanks.

pop nodes have a group parameter that you can use for your group sop.

That doesn't work. I tried but it shows only "stream_source_first_input"

yes, it does. You can always use pop groups or streams as well

ok I see that your group is piped in the first input of the popnet. What if it's piped in the second input?

Then fetch the attrib from a pop wrangle and make sure to change the inputs to "second content geo..." You can either create a grp or an i@myattr and use the group in the pop nodes or vex expressions. Also, why do you need the grp in the second input?

I was just testing but you’re right. I group transferred the group to the first input and worked fine. Thx
