Hey, is there a way to access points of a layout tool in sops, with the layout tool set to point instance? If I use lopimport node and bring in any layout, it will only allow me to manipulate the instancer itself; upon unpacking it will move all the instances to their original position, only allowing to edit the base prototypes.

Following question would be - if it is possible, would I be able to modify the points attributes to affect scale, for example, and the send it back to the layout tool?

Best regards

Maybe check this out: https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/95975/ [www.sidefx.com]

Ultimately, the answer to all of your questions is "yes" because it's all just data, but it could require writing some Python to get the exact workflow you are requesting.
