Feature Request: Geo Array

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Is it possible to create Geo array, like floatArray, intArray functionality!

it would be perfect!

We are working towards this for crowd, but I believe we could be fine with just 
a GeoDraw node accepting an array of matrix44 as input and able to display one 
geo transformed by each one of these matrices.

If you have other needs for an array of geo other then visualising instances, 
please specify further so we can think about it.

Yes. Now the problem is that DrawGeo takes only one geo. Your way with matrix44 
is good. If I find the use of geoArray, I'll let you know. I do not remember 
exactly. I have not PC with Coral, now.
And 1 wish, is GroupNode:
1) to get (in output) new geo of elements(points,polygons)
2) or other methods to select needet elements

Sorry, but I do not really understand.
Do you mean that node drawGeo will have 2 inputs: one for geometry and a second 
for array for matrices? If it is - its good.
But we still need an array of different geometries. An infinite number of input 
geometrise(like arrayBuilder) and one output (merged) geometry. Like in houdini.

PS / You need forum\wishList guys ;)

Yes, exactly that.

"But we still need an array of different geometries. An infinite number of

houdini."

Makes sense and it's very easy to do, I'll add a new feature request for that.

We are using the mailing list to chat about new features and then google-code 
to keep track of requests, you should join the list : )

So two nodes?

GeoMerge
-inputGeo1
-inputGeo2
-outputGeo

GeoArrayMerge
-inputGeoArray
-outputGeo

Just an idea. :)
