Hi, I would like to separate two point groups by the X-coordinate of my attractor points in points left and right from the attractor.
Thanks for your time and help!

Your âPoint Fieldsâ are not organized by row (or column) so you canât compare X values to your âAttractors per Curveâ (they arenât organized by rows or columns either). So instead I used the Avr (Average) point of âAttractorsâ for comparison of X values.
You want to Dispatch points, not X values (as indicated by the red error message on your âLeft fromâŚâ and âRight fromâŚâ Geometry components, after Dispatch).
The branches in your âPoint Fieldsâ are backwards from your âAttractorsâ so I used BANG! and Entwine to fix that (white group).
I left a copy of my âTree/List Viewerâ tool in this file, I suggest you learn how to use it by plugging trees of geometry into the âTreeâ input and playing around.
Thanks a lot. Can you explain what Avr does exactly?
Experiment with it! For numbers, itâs the mathematical average, for points, itâs a point that represents the âcenterâ of a cloud (list) of points.
Wire the output of Avr to the âTreeâ input of the âTree/List Viewerâ (which is useful only for geometry, not numbers).
Did you know a solution without using the average component for that? Because when my attractor points are more diagonal it is not workin correctly with the seperation to left and right
There are many ways, as I and others have said (eleven days ago in another one of your many threads about this):
The rectangles shown in your image are nowhere to be found in your GH model. Seems to me they would be extremely useful for whatever you are trying to accomplish? Much more so than trying to pattern match âAttractors per Curveâ, whatever they are?
It sounds to me like you could use help earlier in the process, formulating a better strategy to get what you really want, instead of painting yourself into a corner and asking for help with a contrived and difficult set of conditions.
This one from three weeks ago was prophetic:
