Field nodes.

Accumulate Field

Accumulate Field

Creates a running total of a given Vector, Float, or Int field.

Inputs

EntryWhat it does
ValueThe field to be accumulated.
Group IndexThe values of this input are used to aggregate the input into separate 'bins', creating multiple accumulations.

Properties

Data Type
Data Type

What data type to work with.

Data Type

Domain

From which domain to use the data.

Outputs

EntryWhat it does
Leading and TrailingReturns the running totals starting at either the first value of each accumulations or 0 if there is no data
TotalReturns the total accumulation at all positions of the field.

Evaluate at Index

Evaluate at Index

This node allows accessing data of other elements in the context geometry.
It is similar to the Transfer Attribute node in Index mode. The main difference
is that this node does not require a geometry input, because the context
is used.

Inputs

EntryWhat it does
IndexInput Index.
ValueInput Value.

Properties

Properties
Data Type

What data type to calculate.

Domain
Domain

What geometry to calculate.

Output

Value

The output value.

Evaluate on Domain

Evaluate on Domain

This node evaluates an existing field on a separate domain in a larger field context - an alternative to the Capture Attribute node. This nodes gets the field type of an existing field from the input socket and interpolates the field type as an array in the output socket.

Inputs

Value

The input value to get the field.

Properties

Properties
Data Type

Select the Data Type - which can be float, integer, vector, color and boolean.

Domain
Domain

The domain the Field evaluates. This gets and filters the field type. The domain can be point, edge, face, face corner, spline or instance.

Outputs

Value

The output value.

Field Average

Field Average

Calculate the mean and median of a given field.

Inputs

EntryWhat it does
ValueThe input value to get the field.
Group IDThe input Group ID to get the field.

Properties

Field Min & Max

Field Min & Max
Field Min & Max

Calculate the minimum and maximum of a given field.

Inputs

EntryWhat it does
ValueThe input value to get the field.
Group IDThe input Group ID to get the field.

Field Variance

Field Variance

Calculate the standard derivation and variance of a given field.

Inputs

EntryWhat it does
ValueThe input value to get the field.
