perfect, thank you! The polys don't behave that way when they are passed into the rotate-node without the loci. regards

Hello, I tried rotatig multible loci about a center so that they get arranged like the numbers on the clock. But they didn't move at all. When I use Polys instead they all get rotated about the same degree. Please take a look into the file attached.

thanks, that seems to come closer but is still not exact: r8bit = 0 print ( ((r8bit + 1) * 256) - 1 ) >> 255 // Should be 0

Hello, I need to convert from 8 bit RGB to 16 bit. Just miltipling every value by 256 will come close but not exact: RGB_8Bit = (255,0,160) RGB_16Bit = [] for i in RGB_8Bit: RGB_16Bit.append ( i * 256 ) can someone provide a better algorithm

thanks, the next online update of the german vw-version which will be released within the next week comes with the current node-library of the us version. regards

Hi Ruud, before moving the object multiple times you have to duplicate it. Otherwise the object is moved by the sum off all the offset values. regards

I think the function is only supposed to change the height of 2D objects like a rectangle not the z value of 3d objects.

Hello herb, thanks for reporting. I have already made a bug request about this issue. It seems to be related with the german encoding.

Here is an alternative way. You can create a offset nurbs with the Move-node

Hello RuudB, when I use a 3d Point as offsetvalue im getting a error message. It runs correctly when a integer value is used a offset input. regards edit: The Nurbs used for my test was only 2d. With a 3d Nurbs Im also getting no result.

I want to share my enhanced version of the 'Get Bounding Box'-node with you. The outputs width, height and center have been added. Get Bounding Box Fixed

Hi alan it's pretty simple. In the OIP of the ObjByCriteria theres a filed for the criteria which could be: N='controlGeom1' (Name = 'controlGeom1') T=Rect (Type = Rectangle) the Node will deliver all Objects of the document (or only of the layer??) which match the criteria. Here is a list with the criteria: http://developer.vectorworks.net/index.php/VS:Function_Reference_Appendix#attrCrit An easy method to create criteria statements can be found in the script editor (lokk at the screenshot). regards

Hello Nik, Sorry if I missed something. Why should someone put values of a different type into the if-Node? I hope it helps when you connect the delete-Node direct with the object node like in the attached example.

thanks Marissa, In the meantime I scripted the node by myself. The 'Add Sequence'-Node does not work for me. Take a look into the attached files.

It also happened a few times to me when I forgot to set the count value. Would be great if there was a Button to terminate the execution of the network.

thanks, now theres another problem. To place the objects relative to each other I need a algorithm which is similiar to the fibbonaci sequenze: offset_values = [10, 20, 15, 30 ] 10(item 0) + 20(item 1): 30(result 0) + 15 (item 2): 45 (result 1) + 30 (item 2) ... result: [10, 30, 45, 75]

Hello, I have a list with randomly generated numbers. The height of the marionette object is the sum of all items. Is there a way to get the height with marionette. regards

thanks Alan, I had no idea that the sweep node is that mighty. The profile input (circle and locus) looks really abstract to me, I try understand the mechanism behind it. regards

This is a little script to create Spirals. Excepts the 'PopUp'- and the 'Switch Case'-Node all nodes are native. I also created two wrappers: -'GetPointsOnCircle' -'DegreeToRadiant' reagards Patrick

thanks, I have optimized it: If you don't want to get a rainbow you can set the start-hue and stop-hue value to your personal taste. So you can define shades of green for example. Take a look into these links if you don't know what 'hue' is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSL_and_HSV http://colorizer.org/ And a option for reversing the range has been added. regards

In this example you can find a node that returns a spectrum of colors and a Wrapper for creating random 3d Points. Saturation and Brightness can be changed in the OIP. regards

Hello, I created a node which contains all the OIP Control types.

Hi Domi, how do you show up that dialog with the output values? thanks
