Associated Parameters: AddPointNode
Introduced
7.0
UI Location
• Point Cloud
Description
Adds one or more points to the referenced point cloud geometry. Points can either be specified with input positions or locations. To add more than one point, you can either connect a graph that generates a non-singleton (size larger than 1) data set, connect a graph that generates an array of positions or locations, or connect a graph that generates a non-singleton data set of arrays. The number of points added is the number of array elements for each of the set elements or just the data set size when not dealing with arrays.
Add Point sets the position of the added points based on the input values. It also sets an ID attribute which is a unique integer value for each of the points that will not get re-used if some points eventually get deleted.
