Hi. I have recently encountered a problem with instancing while working on a project. When I try to instance objects to a group of points it will either not work, or as in this example file not instance to all the points in the group. This has worked for me fine in the past, but now it doesn't seem to be working. I'm using the latest production build. Here is an example file. I appreciate any help you can give me.

object merge expects Primitive group if any
so if you put point group there, houdini imports just primitives with all points belonging to that group, therefore it is ignoring few points in your group

instead of specifying group in Object Merge, leave it empty and use Blast SOP to keep just points of your group

Thanks for the explanation I was not aware that was the case, now I know. I will give that a try

thanks again that did the trick!
