Hello,
I'm stucking since hours on normalizing point normals. It should
be really simple but – I have no idea why – it doesn't work.
You can see the vector in the screenshot. If I normalize this vector
it stays as it is. But it should be converted later in a vector field
for use in a dop sim.
In another test setup with a simple grid that has point normals it
works fine.
What is here the difference? Thank you so much for helping.
Kind regards
Mark
Here is a screenshot
The scene is attached
Why does normalizing not working in this case?

Hi Vusta,
sorry about that – I missed to attach the alembic files.
Now there is a zip file including the .abc's attached. And I've
removed the volume calculations as they are not needed for this step.
I've tried the @N = normalize(@N); wrangle, too. It doesn't bring the values
to the range 0 … 1.
Of course in the grid examples this works fine.

those are probably super tiny numbers, just expand your collumn width, will probably say something like -2.731531534e-16
EDIT: also based on your screenshot you may have Full Precision turned on for Spreadsheet otherwise you'd see it straight away as it would be much shorter, something like -2.73153e-16
