Hi guys!

I am using a resample node and letting it create the Tangent Attribute. It works fine but I cannot figure out how to then access the individual values of that attribute in an Attribute Wrangle node.

I have tried @tangentu.0 @tangentu @tangentu{0} @tangentu.x @tangentu.r but nothing works, I always get an error saying that the attribute is a float and not a vector.

Any ideas? Thanks!

try using @tangentu.x rather than .0
and maybe try v@tangentu.x to be very explicit its a vector.

Hi,

tangentu is not one of the known attributes so you have to explicitly specify the type unless if it's float as @Hatchery mentioned v@tangentu.

Then you can use or

I rmb this issue was driving me crazy when working with user-created vector attributes in Vex.

Now I developed the habit of always specify the data type when reading any attrib.
Just in case.

Thanks that worked!

I was also able to get it done by using the attrib() function



But I see that using v@tangentu.x is essentially the same thing but more efficient.

Thanks a lot for the help!
