Hello,

I am trying to access some attributes in DOP's that I have created on my geometry in SOPs. I have a prim attribute called ‘block’. I can see the attribute in the details view in DOPs if I go block_n>Geometry. But how do I access it from within a DOP node?

I can't seem to do it with prim as DOPs doesn't recognize the $PR variable and dopfield has too many arguments.

Any help greatly appreciated.

the moment you create a DopObject the Geometry-Information comes into dops as well, here is an example how you can access it, for example the velocity as a point attribute
point(“..:MyDopObject/Geometry”,0,“v”,0)

with:
“..:” –> points to the current DopNetwork
MyDopObject –> is the DopObject “MyDopObject” you want the geometry from
“/Geometry” points to the Data-Field entry.

but if accessing attributes with e.g. changing values for all sides of a cube does work, i dont know


another thing to mention, if you want to use this to initialise velocities whatsoever for a fractured/glued object, you have to do it in an seperate rbd-state object, because at the moment you want to set any attributes (velocity etc) the geometry is not yet part of the object.

Cheers
