Is there any point in using Attribute VOP set to Detail?
I have been trying to use it because when I want to do calculations that are not mesh element dependent, in my mind, doing it in Detail will have better performance. But it seems I can't visualize them, so I wonder if I'm having some “wrong thinking” out of this.

Example: I have a 0,1,0 vector on a Bind Export. It's visualized in both Primitive and Points, but not in Detail.
You can see it color (green) but no vector or marker.



I was expecting markers at the origin and vector rooted at the origin. But nothing.

Let me know how Detail should be visualized. Thanks

Submitted a RFE since what I was looking for is what is shown in the image blow, in XSI ICE, but apparently Houdini Visualizers can't do it for now, because it's Detail and because it's Array.



Point Attribute:



Detail Attribute (one would expect a single yellow array at (0,2,0):

Out of interest why do XSI users love arrays? It seems that every XSI user demands to use it way more than an average Houdini user.

Thx!

I'm only a Houdini user and use arrays quit a bit.

Only wish it would support arrays of arrays; That would be very usefull and helpfull.
