The old Basic/Watch node, from an old version of nodeeditor, does not work properly in the latest version.

Hello Brian,

@Brian: that was a good info!
@Barry: I had a look and made some changes to show how the labeling works.

A nice day to all

Hi Karsten,
thanks for the watch node it will be useful when checking maths function outputs.
I can not run your animation not sure if it's the version of node editor I'm running or not ?
The thing I am looking for is a sequence type event ie: object 'A' moves then object 'B' etc
So basically 'A' at some point in it's move cycle will trigger 'B' to start and so on.
The thing that got my interest was the Bottle Feed Screw. I animated it in Blender using the
time line but could not do a Variable Pitch Screw that way so I used the node editor with the
quartz node and it worked great.
I'm off on holiday with a copy of Javascript for Dummies so you may hear from me again.
Cheers
Barry

Hi Friends
First of all . many thanks Karsten and James,
for the precise explanations and examples,
on my part I will try to penetrate, as the Poet says
"this dark forest"
I hope I can understand ....
I take the opportunity to share this
exercise, done time ago "Mandala 3D"-
Files and images at the following link: http://www.mediafire.com/file/l6otl6249cfc7hm/Mandala_3.rar
Have a Nice Weekend to all

Hello Al, Hello James,

thanks for sharing your files. For those who want to write some Poetry inside the nodeeditor, I made a text node:-)

Have a nice day
Karsten

Hello Karsten
GRANDE........

Where is the Text node ?
it's the Construct2

Cool

Sorry but how do you obtain the node Text ?
In the construct2.js ? I suppose in folder nodes ?

But curriously it don't appear as show in my previous post!
Very mysterious!

Edit : find it!
I have put twice the file construct2.js : in folder nodes & folder extensions !

Thanks now all is fine!
I have put the file in two folders that makes the mess! :)

Hi Karsten
The text node is fine, I wanted to ask you,
following James's post, if it's in the future
It is possible to provide all Node Points, even those
mPath, of an output that can be read
from our Text node, in such a way as to return
"Reading "the list of item?
It would be a great advance for the "manipulation"
some data......
Excuse me, if I tedium with these my constant
requests ...
But it is for the goodness of "Elephant"
Have a nice day

Hi Karsten,

Following on from my last post, I realise that it maybe confusing to have a text input if it can only accept num array inputs.

As an alternative approach, I have attached image of how node maybe extended to serve as a counter of points in an array.




In the absence of a numbered labelling of points, I have relied on cloning to points spheres of variable sizes to make the sequencing legible. Obviously this method is grossly inadequate. I hope you can see the value of the suggested improvement.

Thanks
James

Hello James, Hello Al,

Yep - I think it is possible, but I don't have the time at the Moment - some private Problems:-(

Have a nice day
Karsten

Hello Karsten,

Hope everything works out OK

All the best
James

Hello to All
Continue my research on Minimal Surf:
Is the turn of the Minimal Periodic Doubly Scherk,
Modeled Low Poly-
Fairly simple but engaging, at least I think

Hi All,

Attached is my latest experiment with nodeeditor showing
parametric depth control of flowed geometry over a surface substrate.

BE WARNED: drawing to screen may be up to half a minute.

Have a great weekend
James




P.S. simple 2nd example added

Remember my doddling! :)
