Use the OSM Attributes

[DanielS]

Hey everyone,

Is it possible to use the imported OSM Attributes?

I make a Rule with the Attribute height (attr height = rand(10,50)) the building is shown in this height(s). Everything is fine.
But I like to use the attributes from the OSM-data if available. Because of this the attribute have the same name like the Attribute in the ???Object Attributes???.
I tried to connect it with the ???Attribute Connection Editor??? but the selection for ???Object attribute??? is grey, cannot be selected???

hi.

You don't want to have those values to be strings. You NEED floats to be floats for e.g. the extrude.

So you'd use something like ..

attr height = ""  heightFunction =     case height == "" : rand(30, 50)     else : float(height)  Lot -->     extrude(heightFunction)

or similar.
