Hola!
I have what seems to be a simple data-tree problem.
I have data tree called Lukes Awesome Data
of {A;B;C}(i)
, where: A
are rectangles, B
is the rectangle faces (either front or back), and then C
are grouped points
related to those faces.
For example {0;0;0}(4)
refers to the first rectangle, on the front-face, with the first group of points (which refer to the four corners of the rectangle). I have five groupings of points per face i.e the path_count
of C
is five.
This structure is important to my script, but I quite often break it down to do some transformations and then rebuild it. I’m at a point where I want to assign geometry from a datatree called Daves Lame Geometry
to these point groupings. Davids Lame Geometry
contains five different geometry on one branch:
Daves Lame Geometry
: {A}(i)
where item_count
is equal to 5
I would like it to be applied to each of the five paths at the third-level of Lukes Awesome Data
, i.e.:
Geometry A
should be applied to all (i)
points within {A;B;0}
Geometry B
should be applied to all (i)
points within {A;B;1}
…
Geometry E
should be applied to all (i)
points within {A;B;4}
Such that Geometry A
is applied all values across the different branches: {0;0;0}
, {0;1;0}
, {0;2;0}
… {0;99;0}
, no matter how many rectangles there end up being.
I thought if I Grafted
the data in Lukes Awesome Data
so each point was on its own branch {A;B;C;i}
, and I remapped Daves Lame Geometry
to → {A;B;i}
, that the mapping would assume I want to apply the geometry at that grouping level, rather than the individual level:
Geometry A
{0;0;0}
→ Point Grouping #1 {0;0;0;0}
, {0;0;0;1}
… {0;0;0;4}
Geometry B {0;0;1}
→ Point Grouping #2 {0;0;1;0}
, {0;0;1;1}
… {0;0;1;4}
Etc.
In hindsight it was a silly assumption on my part. Instead I am trying to recreate Daves Lame Geometry
to match Lukes Super Awesome Data
, which I thought I could do with duplicating the data, so that Daves Lame Geometry
would look like:
{0;0;0}
:
Geometry A
Geometry A
Geometry A
Geometry A
{0;0;1}
:
Geometry B
Geometry B
…
etc.
But for the life of me I can’t seem to figure out which combination of Longest List
and Duplicate Data
to use. Longest List
seems to work initially, but then doesn’t wrap the way I expect it to. I think others have had this problem too, but I’m not sure if I’m Googling/Searching for the correct terms to bring up any solutions?
Any suggestions would be fantastic!
Thanks,
Luke
