Project doesn't work with model objects

Hello, project component does not work for model object.

Hi @Vojtech_Liska,

This is the correct behavior, though confusing at first.

Think of Model Object as a bucket containing meta data and geometry.

The Projectcomponent acts on the Geometrynot the Model Object itself.

This effectively “carries” the Model Object along in the logic while specifically updating the geometry only (now updating it to the projected geometry)

So after using this component you need to pass the output of the Project component back into the Model ObjectG input like so:

Hope that helps you!

I understand that the project component will handle just the geometry of model object. Or should, as it clearly does not. The issue is, model object has to be cast to pure geometry using the curve parameter. The project component cannot do it on its own. You can clearly see the output is “null” without the explicit cast.

I expect the same resulting geometry with or without the “crv” parameter.

Sidenote:
Average component not being able to handle model points is flagged as a bug.

We can fix this as well.
