Title: Vertex Position for Shape Operator
Post by: Dragan on February 13, 2025, 02:26:39 pm

I found the new Shape Operator very useful but since I don't know what is happening under the hood I'm not sure if this request is possible:

The new spline created by the Shape Operator is created on RC Object Origin. It would be great if we could move this shape/origin on some vertex position of the existing/master curve.

It's not possible, sorry. Shape node is evaluated before Generators, so it cannot be referenced to other objects. In fact, a same Shape would be used by different generators.
Line is created at origin, and Circle/Rectangle centered on it.

We designed it mainly to be used in nested generators. So final shape position is defined by the second generator.
