I have a list of numbers that I want specific geometry to use for an offset. I have this so far: [image] so instead of moving the slider to choose which index I want, I would like to insert something in the stream to do the selection for me, so I could have multiple offsets for different items. …

Hello, Since you have several offset values, and one or several curves for each value, I’d say the solution is to create a tree of curves using Entwine, and a tree of values using Graft Tree. As a side note, NEVER use both sides of a Panel simultaneously. Either input or output, not both. If you d…

[image] Joseph_Oster: You didn’t internalize your geometry (curves) so I created some myself. I just had some random shapes in there, but one thing I want is to have any number of random elements in each input, including zero. If I don’t use the “Entwine” and “Graft Tree” they get mixed up… …

[image] Joseph_Oster: :laughing: Hah! Too bad your first post was missing some important details. Yes, and if I would have internalized the geometry it would have helped as well… What can I say, I’m a noob. :upside_down_face: I was having a difficult enough time trying to explain what I wa…

@Joseph_Oster : You make a good point, I most definitely appreciate everyone’s help on here and don’t wish to make anyone feel unappreciated. I always search for the answers myself, and most of the time I am able figure it out, and when I post a question, I try to provide a concise example of exac…
