Yes.
Filter out the position of the point you want. By ID or whatever.
Then get “set average” of the output of the filter ( to bring it into object
context rather than point)
Then use that value to drive the Translation value of SRT to matrix and use the
resulting matrix to drive the Global Kine of the object.
If you want to drive the rotation of the object , you can set the rotation by
using the normal of the emitting object and have that rotation plugged into the
SRT too(find it via emit location or find closest location to geo) . Or if
there is no object, you’ll have to make your own rotation. You could do this by
using the strand itself.
Filter out the strand positions. Select 0 and 1 from the array, subtract one
from the other and use the resulting vector as a direction to rotation.. You’ll
need to also give it an up vector, but I can’t really help with that without
looking at whats appropriate in your scene.

Subject: attach objects to end of strand
Hi guys, been a while since using Softimage over here!
Simple question (maybe not that simple)
Using for example the Particle Strands Growing Roots scene, from the samples
db, i would like to connect at the location of the particle, a simple geometry
and keep the original shape of the strand in the strand itself (segment). Any
quick ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Francisco.
