Beginner question on Move behaviour

Hi everybody, i'm studying "GH primer 2nd edition" on a last version of GH and i'm stuck at example with color boxes. Seems that old Move operator took grid as a whole opposed to "column by column" behaviour of updated one.

that's what i'm trying to achieve:

that's what i'm getting

How do i move grid at once, not every column separately?

My first guess is generating a serie of vectors to a number of points in a cube, and then apply them to flattened grid list, but i'm not sure how to do it without loop. There must be a simpler solution.

Have you tried "grafting" the T input? Edit: you'll need to "Flatten" the G input too.

this example is probably before the introduction of trees in GH.

to make it work, on the move component, right click on G input and select "flatten" and on T input select "graft."

Thank you guys! Grafting the Geometry input of the Move helped!

I'm starting to sloowwly understand how the lists are being referred by an operators. And I'm impressed how you need to take care of the what trees you put into input, and what level is your data on to make them finally match.
