Vectorizer


The Vectorizer block appends its input scalar values to its input vector. If there is no input vector, the block creates a new vector with its input scalar values as its elements.

To add more than ten values to a vector, append several Vectorizer blocks together. To add fewer than ten values to a vector, delete the remaining ports by dragging them onto the block. If you do not delete the unused ports, the block will not execute.


Note: All the Vectorizer's input ports (including the vector input port dp-in-0) must be connected and have valid values before the block will pass a vector. The block does not pass a vector if it has any input ports that are not connected to a path or if any of the paths for the input ports has a quality of no-value.
