Geometry Property Set

This Node can be used to reset properties and components of a geometry, such as the point positions, normals or tangents. This Node is the counterpart to the Geometry Property Get Node, which can be used to query such data.
The correct configuration of the Node can already be carried out by using certain keywords when searching for the Node via the search bar of the Asset Browser. For example, you can enter Set Points, Set Normals or Set Tangents in the search mask and the Geometry Property Set Node will be displayed. When this Node is created by double-clicking on the search result in the Asset Browser, the Node will automatically be configured accordingly and added to the circuit. A Node searched for via Set Points will then be automatically configured to set the point positions on the assigned geometry, for example.
The following search terms can be used:

  • Set Positions/SetPoints: The point positions of the geometry are set.
  • Set Polygon Points: The point positions are also set here, but in the order in which the points are used by the polygons. Since a point can also be part of several polygons, point positions must also be set several times. This distinction only makes sense for a polygon geometry. When using spline geometry, the point positions will also be set in sequence.
  • Set Normals: The normal directions for the points of the geometry will be updated. This only makes sense for polygon geometry.
  • Set Color Alphas: The color values including their alpha values will be defined.
  • Set UVs: The UV coordinates of the geometry will be defined. This only works with polygon geometry.
  • Set Weights: The weighting values of the geometry will be defined.
  • Set Tangents: This can be used to define the tangent pairs of the points in a spline geometry.
  • Set Corners: This information can be used for spline geometry to activate the use of tangents at a point (false) or to use a hard interpolation at the point (true) using Boolean values.
