Compose Operator : resize one segment

[Remco]

Hello,

i am trying to create an element where i can resize the middle part.
i am using the compose Operator and want to resize the middle segment and the the other object move to the right positon.

You might want to use nested generator instead.

Hi,

i'm lost, everithing i do i end up with the same problem. (even with the nested generator)
a new pointer how to fix this would be appreciated

[Rokas]

Would You attach max so i can take a look ?

Hi,

Here is the file

Hi
I can`t open File due to Max version (I`m still using Max2018) but here is the file that can help you.
I have exposed some parameters so you can set Size by the Mid_Segment or by the total size of `Composed` Segments. You can also set X Fixed Size if you are plan to use those on some curved spline.
Please, do not hesitate to ask for more 
Best Regards.

Hi

I have modified Your style to include both composed segments (red) and nested generators (green) methods.


Hope You can analyze it and learn from attached example.
Feel free to ask any questions You have.

1 more question?

is it also possible that when I fill in a dimension it gets bigger to 1 side? I've been working on my railclone skills all week and haven't gotten around to the arithmetic node yet

[Dragan]

One possible solution is to add 3 Transform operators with different Y alignment and connect them to a Selector Operator (1-3).
