I can't figure this out

So this should be relatively straight forward… or so I thought… I cant think of a way to do this.

What Ive got right now is 22 lists, each contains a different number of different points. The points are grouped by what they represent (data from meerkat) - a point from one of the lists could be a bank, or an art gallery, or a gym… etc - as indicated by the title on the file ill attach below.

Ill attach a simple .gh file that shows the group of lists im dealing with for reference.

What im looking for is a component that I could attach a slider to and shift between each category of programs to find a single list with all its referenced points. So for example, all 22 lists go in, I choose “#2” and get the 46 points that are in the 2nd list called “ATM’s”.Programs.gh (79.0 KB)

Thanks in advance

Entwine them and use Tree Branch afterwards to select them.

That was quick!

Thank you so much, this is perfect. :slight_smile:

e/ How did you get the program names into the panel?

Manually, I typed them :slight_smile: I think you could use Metahopper to extract them from your components.

There is a set of components made specifically for this kind of stuff. Look at stream gate and stream filter.

Good to know. Much easier! Programs_re2.gh (95.7 KB)
Although, depending on what you want to do, a combined list of all points (entwine output) could be of use.
