Interconnecting Branch Items

Hi,

I have a general questions on how to interconnect branches.

Take a look below:

The result is as aspekted.

But what I would like to do is instead of creating 3 polylines along the curves, I would like to create 10 interconnecting polylines. (Connecting all first points of the lines, all second points,...)

How would I do that.

Thanks in advance for your help

Martin

Martin,

You will need to manipulate your data structure to regroup points into each of 10 corresponding branches.

See if this discussion helps you get started. It has links to other discussions as well.

I think you can use the list.item component to select the first item of each list and group them.

Insert a list (from a series-component) from 0 to 10 into the index input of the list.item. That should give you 11 paths of three components.

Good luck.

I kinda thought I wasn't the first who had that problem. I just couldn't find the post.

There are a few ways as you have seen from the links but I thought I would just add this way for interest sake. Fewer components, different constraints. This way can be used for more specific control of where the points should be.
