View Full Version : World space coordinate from EP

Is there a node that will give me the world space coordinates of an EP on a curve? In this case the ep will always be the last one on the curve so I looked at arcLengthDimension and pointOnCurveInfo but I cannot get them to do what I need. I also tried using a cluster deformer to locate the ep but the cluster does not follow the ep and I need to know the world space as the ep moves. I also tried point constraining a locator to the ep but that does not work either.

Thanks,
Ron
Edit:
Never mind,
I realized I can get what I want by setting my curve parameterization to '0 to one' and using the pointOnCurveInfo node with the input parameter set to one, to get what I need.

Thanks

hi,

in more general cases, u could use the pointPosition command with ep:s
