    Connectivity POP

    Summary

    The Connectivity POP is intended to re-connect the input's points with a set of new primitives, similar to what the Grid POP or Torus POP does to their sets of points. It works on any POP, especially those that ore organized as multi-Dimensions, that is, having rows, columns, slices and any number of dimensions.

    Like the Grid POP you can connect the points in any dimension with line strips, or in any two dimensions with meshes of triangles or quads, or leave them as point primitives or no primitives.

    It generally takes care of the incoming POP's arrangements points, and also offers more kinds of line strip connections, like zig-zag or spiral connections of points.

    Parameters - Common Page

    Bypass bypass - Pass through the first input to the output unchanged.

    Free Extra GPU Memory freeextragpumem - Free memory that has accumulated when output memory has grown and shrunk.

    Delete Input Attributes delinputattrs - Only output which attributes you specify in this POP - helps isolate attributes into a separate branch.

    Common POP Info Channels

    Common Operator Info Channels

    • total_cooks - Number of times the operator has cooked since the process started.
    • cook_time - Duration of the last cook in milliseconds.
    • cook_frame - Frame number when this operator was last cooked relative to the component timeline.
    • cook_abs_frame - Frame number when this operator was last cooked relative to the absolute time.
    • cook_start_time - Time in milliseconds at which the operator started cooking in the frame it was cooked.
    • cook_end_time - Time in milliseconds at which the operator finished cooking in the frame it was cooked.
    • cooked_this_frame - 1 if operator was cooked this frame.
    • warnings - Number of warnings in this operator if any.
    • errors - Number of errors in this operator if any.
