Hello,
i am new to houdini coming from cinema 4d xpresso and Rhinos Grasshopper…its a steep learning curve i must say.
i am trying to do one simple thing, reference a custom attribute i created to drive my primitive tube radius that i create later on in my node tree.
i have already tried @sizeZ (sizeZ being my attribute's name) but with no success
i also thought primitive vops would do it but i found no way to manipulate the tube's values from inside the vop. (any tips here would be greatly appreciated)
How should i go about doing that?
Thanks
Philip

thank you for replying, it worked ofcourse!
could i do this through vops?
is there any other way
i tried to copy the value of the attribute (from the attribute create node) as a parameter and paste relative references to the tube radius but it didnt work for some reason
thanks again!

ps : i dont understand exactly what is prim(“../attribcreate1”,0,“sizeZ”,0) where can i look into it?

Expressions are pretty important in Houdini…
