Grouping/Tagging Points

Hello, 

i working on a point wrap deformer to a mesh, i am creating points in bifrost (not from maya geo),

i want to calculate the point data after deformation, so i need to group some points prior to deformation.

how to group a set of points in the creation stage to access those points later ?

To group pts you can use the tag nodes, there are different ways to tag those pts and they get passed accordingly. If they do not you can always transfer them. 

There is a point deform in the graph btw - Under Bifrost Browser > Rubber > MPM Rubber graph.

Yes, in the Bifrost Browser, there is a section called Tags, you can have a look.

They def should be there Tags came out in BF 2.8 we are in BF 2.12.

 

If you type tag in the inside the graph do you see any nodes related to tags?
