Happy Christmas! [image] The graph is frickin’ ugly! Snowman.dyn (98.4 KB) [Snowman]

If someone could explain why the christmas tree point is able to be directly manipulated, but none of the others are, that would be great :slight_smile:

It’s also a bit blocky when going to mesh, might make a nice bauble… [image] Edit: Hah, I’ve worked out how to control the mesh conversion…! [image] It defaults to -1. The closer you get to 0, the higher the resolution… But if you put in 0, nothing happens… (presumably it’s then at inifinity which causes it to fail)… So 0.001 gives an extremely high res export (this was 275meg!) [image]

[image] Mark.Ackerley: directly manipulated Assuming you mean you can click on it in the 3D preview and drag it around?

Yeah, that’s how the primer talks about it… you can see that it’s red, but if i preview the others they’re not… it must be something to do with the constraints? or the cone?

My guess is the others are reliant on nodes which are not/ cannot be inputs (such as the point).

Yeah I had a play around, that one seemed as constrained as all the others. It’s no biggy. Any luck with control of the meshing? It would be nice to be able to up the point count…

If I remerber it correctly the input to the Point.ByCoordinates nodes needs to be sliders!

Thanks Einar, If you just make a point you can drag it, then Dynamo adds sliders for you :slight_smile: My conclusion is that in Dynamo I can create a point, but I can also Move a point and have a Representation of it show up. I think it’s only the original points which can be dragged, with or without sliders. That makes sense but was hidden with all my other stuff being in the graph :slight_smile: [image]

try making a reference point out of the point

Hey Marcel, thanks. Unfortunately that doesn’t work (partly because I’m not in a family :stuck_out_tongue: ) but mainly because the new point is constrained by the other point? Edit: I guess the manipulation is down-stream only, like a dynamo execution would be… [image] Cheers, Mark

Happy Dynamo Christmas!
