Populate random points on multiple surfaces

If you supply two surfaces, you'll have to supply two different counts as well. Or, alternatively, you can convert the surfaces to meshes, join them (separate meshes can be joined into a single one), and then use the PopGeo component. But you won't be able to control exactly how many points each shape gets, but it will be random.

Incidentally the Pop3D component fills a box-shaped volume with points. If you want to populate surfaces, I recommend using PopGeo instead.

PopGeo and what you said works great. Thanks for the help and quick reply!
