How to split text?

Discussions
1

I need to receive multiple OSC messages and filter by certain parts of the address. I can’t simply check for the whole address since parts of it are random/unknown.

I’m only interested in the last part, in this case “Neck” or “joints/Neck” while the second part “72057594037929502” can differ every time:
/bodies/72057594037929502/joints/Neck

How can I do this using Vuo?

Unfortunately there is no “Split Text” node yet.
Also “Cut Text” doesn’t seem to support negative start positions (which could support counting from the end) and crash the composition. I filed a bug report already.

@jvolker,

Thanks for the bug report! A “Split Text” node will be included in Vuo 1.1, due out in about a week. I’ve attached a screen shot.
