Default Mode > Count affect Section

[Dragan]

Could be possible to Default Mode Count affect/create Section size like corners, evenly and markers do?

Hello Dragan,

Technically a section is the distance between the start/end/corners/markers. Basically whenever the spline is divided. Default -> Count mode on the other hand fills in between these points with a set number of objects. If you need the size of the default segments in count mode could you use XSectionLength divided by the count value?

Cheers,
Paul

  Yes, I know. I just hoped this can be coded under the hood.
 Sometimes I have a complex Generator using Sections Lenght for nested generators and last time I had a situation with changing between Evenly, Markers, Corners, and additionally with Count Mode and I had to do one more Arithmetic loop calculation to add this particular SplineLenght/Count to accomplish it.

No, I just meant to Count Mode act as a common corner/evenly/marker separator.
eg. If the count number is 3 it will return 3 Sections to work with instead of doing with EvenyCount=3.
So that way I could maybe use both counts, Default Count Mode as master and Evenly as secondary `splitter`.
Just a thought

I don't think you could use XSectionLength because of how that works internally, but maybe we could return the size of the default segment that's calculated using Count mode as a separate expression. I'll pass the request on to the devs.

If it can`t be incorporated into XSectionLenght then maybe just leave it as it is. I think adding one more attribute variable will just make a mess in an already large number of it.
It is not a problem to do one more arithmetic division. 
P.S. Let them concentrate on preserving segments issue
