In another video, we took a look at the exercise file here where we used the graft tree component and the merge component to control the ordering of our data tree as it passed through the definition. Let's say, that we want us to do a little bit more work here and that might be isolating the pairs of the triangular prism that we're extruding. So, that would mean we'd need to basically extract one or more of the data paths here out of our data tree. And we can do that easily using the tree branch component. We can find that under the Sets Component tab under Tree. So, I'll go ahead and click, and drag that onto my canvas here.
