pull point_either or situation...

To whomever can Help!
I have set up a code that pulls a point in space to two curves, (c1) and (c2)
I am trying to set up an either/or situation that if (x) happens, the point is pulled to (c1), or if (y) happens, the point is pulled to (c2)

(x) would be if the distance between the point and an attractor on (c1) is less than the distance between the point and an attractor on (c2), then the point is pulled to (c1)

(y) would be the opposite; the point would be pulled to (c2)

additionally, i am not trying to just pull the point to a curve in an all or nothing manner, i am trying to pull it incrementally based on the distance of that point to an attractor.

is this too complex? i'm close...i think...

Thank you very much to anyone with some sage advice

Brian

Assuming you have a hard criteria (boolean) for making the decision, you could use a simple scripted component like this ...



Private Sub RunScript(ByVal f As Object, ByVal Ai As Object, ByVal Bi As Object, ByRef Ao As Object, ByRef Bo As Object)

If f Then

Ao = Ai

Bo = Nothing

Else

Ao = Nothing

Bo = Bi

End If

End Sub

Couple it with components to cull Null values from the list like so ...
