NodeBox was helpful for Guilloche Pattern Project

Hi

For a kind of guilloche pattern for which I wanted to transfer different
line thicknesses from one vector object group to another, NodeBox was
very helpful for me.

Even though I don't have a particularly deep understanding of NodeBox
and my node trees are just amateurish, I had fun and was able to achieve
what I aimed for.

I thought i show my little project to encourage especially beginners.
So here's my node tree for all beginners to see.

Two SVG files are required, each containing the same number of objects.
The number of objects in an SVG file is not queried beforehand to feed
the sample node.

Since I usually know the number, I simply enter it by hand. Since I know my
number of objects. I think this node tree will also be helpful for one or two
other ideas of mine. :)

   Gottfried,

   Nice! Simple but very useful. I love it when Nodeboxers share their work like this so that we can all learn.

   One thing: your zip file did not include the two SVG files. If you want others to fully recreate what you've done, you could zip a folder containing the NDBX file and both SVGs.

   John,

   Oops, I forgot the SVG files.
   Attached below are the SVG files and the NodeBox tree
   again all in one Zip File

   Indeed, this node tree is actually very helpful, especially for me.
   Otherwise, I would have to transfer a simple style like line thickness by hand,
   and I like to use blends between different lines. This will make things a lot
   easier for me.

   As for sharing knowledge, Nobody loses anything, and everyone
   becomes a little wiser. Plus, it provides inspiration for your own ideas.

   Well, I've learned a lot about NodeBox by looking at your NodeBox trees,
   which you kindly always attach to your posts. Even if they are far beyond my
   comprehension. So I'd like to take this opportunity to give you a big thank
   you for that.

   But I've never shied away from looking at something I don't understand
   at first glance, or perhaps even at the n-th glance too. From time to time,
   a small spark of understanding remains. :)

   Here the Files.

   Regards and have a nice day
