Can't you just use the "move" component to translate the point to the end of the vector???

I'm a bit cloudy myself and away from MY computer.....

One comes to my mind now. Add a Vector Normal CPlane at the point of origin, and the Normal Vector that you already have, connect it to Z, ok? Then get an Offset Normal CPlane with the Length that you already have, right? Then, Decompose the last CPlane, and get the Origen, that would be your point!

Hope it  work!

Hi Mitch,

 

just use the regular Addition component,

it also works for vectors and points.

Cheers
