Hello everyone
Can anyone help me how i can split rebar
Regardless of the beginning of the rebar drawing I want to issue an order to dynamo to cut off the rebars from the right or the left How can I do this with the dynamo? I made a script to cut the rebat, but it starts from the side where I started drawing the rebar,and I do not want to be restricted in the script.
check out this topic and show your progress
The script works well, but there is a flaw that it starts cutting from the beginning of the point from which I drew the Rebar. I want it to cut the skewer regardless of the beginning of the drawing of the Rebae. I want to issue a command for it to cut the skewer from the right or the left direction .

Check the direction of the curve by getting the tangent at parameter 0, and check the X value If the X value is + it goes left to right. If the X value is - it goes right to left. You can then decide if you want to split from the start or end accordingly.
Crazy question here though: what if it goes too to bottom? Or if it goes perfectly on a 45 degree angle that is slightly - on the X but + on the Y?
When i use node (tanget )
Sometime geterror
Sometime delete all rebar i selected to split it
Dynamo make me always angry 
Hard to help without showing the warning and how you have configured the node in question.
he cut the rebar from left to rigth and i change the value of tangent and i do it without reverse vector all same answer cut from left to rigth
I am not sure how to use the custom node you’re using to split the curve, as it’s not something I utilize nor do I know where it came from.
Instead of trying to make that work, I’d just orient my curves consistently first. Something like this can accomplish that:
Note you don’t need the stuff to display the circle or the start point - those are just to illustrate the concept.

Do u know this node If it existed
I solved it
Thx for all 
Can you share with everyone else? Will help the next person in your situation to pick up where you left off.
