Take data from archive instance

[andrea_pinto82]

Hi! Is it possibile get point position from a Arnold_alembic_instance?
And visualize the instance in the viewport without rendering?

Could you explain a bit further what you are trying todo?

Thanks and sorry for the late reply.

I wanted to use the Arnold_alembic_instance node.

Is there the possibility to display the instance in the viewport?
There is the possibility to interact on the instantiating geometry.

e.g. I have 2 Arnold_alembic_instance per-particle
How do I make a kind of blendshape between the 2 instances?

an Arnold_alembic_instance of a jumping cube.
an Arnold_alembic_instance of a rolling cube.

is there a way to make a blending between the 2 instances?

Thanks for your interest
