Overlay Nested Geometry

Overlay

Overlays one geometry onto another: moves it (Translation, if given), rotates it (Rotation, if given) about the base geometry's bbox center, then moves it again (Offset, if given, rotated to match). Copies the base geometry meta onto the result. Wire arrays into the ports and use the node's List Matching (right-click: Shortest List / Longest List / Cross Reference) to control how items pair up.

Inputs

6

What the node takes in, from wires or typed values.

Base Geometry

Geometry

Geometry that receives the overlay

Overlay Geometry

Geometry

Geometry to overlay onto the base geometry

Translation

Vector

Move applied to the overlay geometry

Rotation

Number

Rotation (radians) applied to the overlay geometry about the base geometry's bbox center

Offset

Vector

Additional move applied after Rotation and Translation, rotated by Rotation so it stays in the same relative direction

Check Bounds

Boolean

Default false

When enabled, warns if the transformed overlay geometry extends beyond the base geometry's bounding box

Outputs

1

What the node gives out, to wire into other nodes.
