Solve this without custom Node


DomC

Recommended Posts

Hi
I am close before using a custom node and I thought, this time I ask before I create a new custom node 🙂
I have two corresponding data flows in two wires.  I want to add items of the second wire by counting the  items in first wire.
 

'obj1', 'obj1', 'obj2', 'obj3', 'obj3', 'obj3', 'obj3'

second wire is:

'str1', 'str2', 'str3', 'str4', 'str5', 'str6', 'str7' 


Somebody knows how to concatenate the strings of the second wire corresponding to the count of the items in wire 1?

'str1str2', 'str3', 'str4str5str6str7'



In a second scenario, I have already grouped the second wire in lists of the lenght of counts of the items in wire1

'obj1', 'obj2', 'obj3' 
['str1', 'str2'], ['str3'], ['str4', 'str5', 'str6', 'str7'] 

 

I repead: It is no problem to solve that with python, but with standard nodes I need an idea.

How easy do you think would it be to modify the Chunk List Node in such a way, that it could take a list instead of a single number?

If the chunk list has less items than necessary to chunk the other list, repeate the chunk list from the first item.

 

I don't think it would be too hard. I'll take a stab at it once I have some free time.

Hello,

 

i think i finaly solved this problem without using custom nodes. It was a fun challenge but, i would rather just write a custoum node 😉. So here is my solution to the problem. Unfortunately the file is created with an edu version of Vectorworks.

 

Thanks to @Antonio Landsberger for bringing this problem back to my mind.

 

 

Regards,

Letti
