Returns element index where an integer or string attribute has a certain value.

The element index is a point number, primitive number, etc, that can be used in Get Attribute to fetch other properties of the element. -1 is returned if no elements have the search value.

Tip

The op:/ syntax can be used to refer to a SOP operator rather than a file on disk.

Parameters

Signature

What type of attribute data to fetch.

Geometry File

The file on disk to fetch an attribute from.

Attribute Class

Attributes can be stored on points, vertices, primitives, or even as global attributes (Detail). The class refers to where to look for it. It will adjust the meaning of Point or Primitive and Vertex.

Attribute

The name of the attribute to fetch. id fetches the common id attribute, and name will fetch the name.

Search Value

The geometry will be searched for a point/vertex/primitive that matches this value.
