Geometry info

What is it about?

This page documents the Geometry Info node of the Scene Nodes system in Cinema 4D. It analyzes incoming geometry and outputs boolean type signals and counts — the analytical sibling of Geometry by Type, without passing geometry through.

This Node is comparable to Geometry by Type, because here too any geometry can be connected and the Node automatically reacts to the type of this geometry. This time, however, no geometry is output, but you receive boole signals at various outputs and a numerical value that enables a clear assignment to the available geometry types.
You will find a working example of this in the discussion of the Node Spline.
