combine_comp

Synopsis

take components from two different fields to make a new n-component field

Input Ports

in_field1	Node_Data
in_field2	Node_Data
ui_parent	user interface parent object

Parameters

data components 1	UIoptionBoxLabel	pick components from first field
data components 2	UIoptionBoxLabel	pick components from second field

Output Ports

out_fld	Node_Data
out_obj	output renderable object

Description

combine_comp takes the selected components from the first input field, and the selected components from the second input field, creating a new output field with n components. The output field's mesh, if present, comes from the first input field. For example, selecting the second components from each of the fields (a, b, c) and (d, [e, f, g]) results in the field (b, [e, f, g]).

Input Ports

in_field1

This input field must contain any mesh with Node_Data object. If a mesh is present, it is passed along untouched as a reference in the output field. The field's data components can be scalar or vector.

in_field2

This input field must contain a Node_Data.

ui_parent

A port to connect to a user interface object that contains the macro's widgets. By default, it is connected to the default user interface object in the application in which the macro is instanced. (This default connection is not drawn.)

Parameters

data component 1
data component 2

UIoptionBoxLabel. Select which of the input fields' components to combine. The default for both is the first (0th) component. If node data labels are present, they are displayed.

Output Ports

out_fld

The output field is a Node_Data that is an array of references to the two selected Node_Data components. If a mesh was present, the output field contains a reference to that mesh.

out_obj

This is a renderable version of the output field.
