I get error when I try to createNode() I am using Indie version btw.

The attempted operation failed.

Some SOPs don't take local variables. Carve SOP is one of them. There is an existing RFE to have the Carve SOP take local variables.

In the meantime, if you need to process multiple curves, you will have to wrap the Carve SOP inside a ForEach SOP in order to process curves in turn.

These days the ForEach SOP is pretty efficient.

Yeah, I ended up using ForEach SOP. Thanks!

Hi,

How would I reference point number with global variable $PT in carve node?

It seems to not having the global variable.

Want to run an expression
point(“../vopsop23”, $PT, “growth”, 0)
on FirstU parameter of carve node.

Any suggestions?
