how to select edge procedurally Nov. 11, 2009, 7:17 a.m.

Thanks man my problem is solved
After the fuse node, I used a join node to join the primitives together

Then I created the expression which calculates the length of seperate segments. Though I had a small problem where I was trying to divide a float value by an integer value, I fixed that as well. (by creating an attribute with float values)
prim(“../measure2”,“$PR”,“perimeter”,0) > (prim(“../measure1”,“$PR”,“perimeter”,0)/$SEGMENTS)

Houdini can be so frustrating if you don't know what to look for sometimes Love/Hate relationship thing, most of the time hate wins

Btw, I talked to the creator of that Edgegroup tool, and maybe he is going to recompile a version for Houdini 10

Dude, thanks!
I just figured out an easy way to select and delete those primitives

What I can do is measure every primitive, and select and delete every primitive which is longer than the distance between points on my base curve. Trying that out next thing in the morning, hope this works!

(have been stuck on this for about a week now :x )

Ah I see, that is interesting.
Only thing is that I don't quite know how to use my point selections to select the proper primitives. Can this be converted somehow? That would be great and probably solve my issue!

Btw, did you knew about this solution before or did you figure it out on the fly?
