Description
combine_vect takes all the selected data components, which must be scalar, and produces a single output data component that is the specified veclen long. For example, selecting the first and third components of (a, b, c, [e,f,g]) results in the field ([a, c]).
Input
in_field
The input field must contain a 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 must include at least two scalar components.
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
veclen
UIslider. Sets the number of scalar components to combine and the out_fld's single component veclen. The default is 3. The range is 1 to 4.
vector components
UIoptionBoxLabel. Selects which of the input field's components to combine. If you select vector components, only the first vector subcomponent is extracted. If node data labels are present, they are displayed. The default is the first three components.
Output Port
out_fld
The output field contains a new Node_Data that is a data array of references to the selected components in the original input Node_Data. It has one component with veclen equal to the specified veclen. If a mesh was present, the output field contains a reference to that mesh.
out_obj
If a mesh was present, this is a renderable version of the output field. Otherwise, rendering objects generate an error.
