Thank you once again BB.
That is exactly my present problem.
I was able to make one, but I could not control it when applying it to a specifically sized area
Obviously I will need to do something like the Racing StripeStripes formula for a matmatic material that I can control it's U & V location.
If nothing else, I learned that in the Node Cult Discussion.
Also I will need to substitute the "dot = Sqrt((U - .595) ** 2 + (V - .7818) ** 2) <= .275" statement for the Stripes creation section
C = .5
t = Abs(U - C)
t = t * (1 + .3 * Gain(V, .8))
W = .1/2
PSW = .005
W2 = W - PSW
transfactor = 400
clr = Blend(2*WHITE, RED, transfactor * (t - W) + .5)
clr = Blend(BLUE, clr, transfactor * (t - W2) + .5) outputs += ["BLEND", Surface(clr, .8, 1, .1, .001)]
My ultimate goal here is to make a Circle (Dot) large enough to place on a roof or door and then add a Number to the center of it. The Circle can be two tone but not required to be.
Thanks
