Hey!

This is one of those things I've solved before but can't remember how. I know that there's an easier way than using Vex with PrimUV.

I use polysplit and the Peak node I thought but can't seem to get it to work.

You can use Polyframe with style set to Primitive Centroid to get your normals.

Thanks Siavash!

The memory of how to do it came back to me in a flash.

PolyFrame->PolyCut->for each prim-> Peak

Thanks CYTE, that would work as well!
