Hi,

I am just trying to drive my point cloud radius attribute (TexturePointCloud) with an extract property "radius" coming from the same point cloud (container). While it works with a constant, it seems to not work with the extract property, i.e. not having any effect. I assume this either does not work by design or I did set the wrong data type on my radius property, lack some conversion nodes inbetween ... ?

What I am after with this setup is to create a "mask" coming from an existing point cloud that features varying density (based on painted radius value). Thanks.

Hello,

I thought some pictures may help . As you can see, with a constant it is easily possible to drive the radius value. But no matter what value I fill the custom radius property on my container with, it does not change anything. So I wonder if my setup is wrong or if this is not possible at all (my Photoshop paintover is what I am trying to achieve). Cheers,

Hey Sam,

ah, I see. Thanks for taking a look. If I understand you correctly, to extract a property, it already has to be existent on the geo. It also would have to be prepped with the values for the radius in this case, which then could be read by the extract property texture, right?

Cheers,

Felix
