Geometry nodes: Always have preselected vertex group without any Group input?

Hi!

So, I recently watched a video where a guy uses vertex group via Group input. Which is sort of what I was looking for, but I’d love to have this input already selected, no matter if it exists or not.

The idea is to several of such inputs ready and if I need them, I’ll just assign particular vertices to a specific vertex group and geometry node tree will automatically hook them in. Without me, assigned this vertex group once more via Group input as well.

I hope it does make sense.

Use an named attribute node not a string node.

The names of your vertex groups should be listed in the options that appear when you click the name box. (Group is the default name for a vertex group)
