Text POP issues

Hi all!

Mac Os Silicon running 2025.32460

First of all very glad that text POP is here! I’ve been extensively using specification DAT/CHOP on geo text COMP so I immediately tried on text POP, here is the result from the same specification DAT on both:

when I first added the specification DAT on the text POP, the first letter was overlapping the second and then the other appended correctly, and now they don’t append at all. Adding a specification CHOP with ltx for instance works, it just doesn’t append.

second thing, here it’s what it looks like when I add a new text POP, most of the time it gives the first resukt (which still looks weird, is this how the triangle output is supposed to look like? could we have a ‘surface’ option like on some other generators?) but some other time by adding a new one or coy pasting the operator there are some really unexpected — although beautiful — glitches.

Can’t wait to dive deeper, I’m really enjoying the line strip extrude POP too :slight_smile:

Hello,

Thank you to reporting this bug, we will be taking a look.

Could you provide me with a small example for the first specification DAT issue. I am testing on my Mac Mini M4, but I can’t seem to reproduce.

The triangles issue however I am able to reproduce and will take a look

The MacOS issue you’ve outline here should be fixed in the next release of TouchDesigner. I was not not able to recreate the Specification DAT issue. If you can provide a reproducible example that would be helpful in tracking it down.
