Sort sublists

Geometry
1

Hi, I have a problem with sorting. I’ve divided points list to sublists by X and now I would like to sort all the points with same X by Y (and want to join them by line, so I need it to be in order).

All I can do is take one sublist at a time (python script just create a list from one sublist), then everything works like I want it to.

How would you solve this task?

Hi @dariusz.mordal,

You can use the node List.GroupByKey with the Points as List and their X-value (maybe do math.round) as Keys, this way each point is now grouped with other points with the same X-value, then you can sort those sublists by their Y-value, like this:

Ps: the list level (@L2) in the Sort.ByFunction node tells that node to do that function in the list of level 2, the lists which contain the individual points.

And check your results, you might need to do some rounding on the X or Y values from the points to Group them together.
