lists & paths on intersections

Hi,

I am having some trouble with paths and lists when making intersections between breps and lines. I didn´t figure out how could I make correspond the intersection lines with the original breps.

I am attaching a screenshot of the lists

Cheers

Miguel,

You may need to put each BRep in it's own branch or you could explode the tree and use 8 individual intersection components. That's the simplest fix I can think of off hand...

This also seems to work. Make sure you have 2 levels for your BRep trees before you intersect them with a list of curves.

thanks, taz, that helps!

but how would you match each point with the breps?
with the path mapper, I guess?

You could [Graft] the points to create another level.

The first 2 levels correspond to the BReps.
The 3rd level corresponds to the curves.
The 4th level corresponds to the points.

So, from below { 1; 0; 3; 0 } would be the 1st point from the 4th curve intersecting the 1st BRep in the 2nd branch.

Clear as mud...
