hey,

im a bit stuck, should be an easy enough problem to fix though, im trying to transfer point numbers from one grid to another…i created an attribute to collect the point numbers from a group of points of one grid and want to apply them to the other grid so i can control them on that grid…

as always thanks a lot

Why do you need the point number ? , seems kind of irrelevant . See attached for a more complex attack of the problem

thanks dave, this is what i was looking for… more tricky then i thought it would be…

the reason i need this technique is because im creating a news ticker. grouping points on a grid and want to transfer the point number onto a tube (to hard to select points on a tube)..


thanks a lot…

Interesting ! . Well without seeing the project I would of thought a interesting solution would be to use the ray sop to project geometry onto a tube . Make your geometry letters with the font sop then project on large tube.
