Parameters

• Scene parameters

  • Output scene path String
    Sets the item name and possibly its containing groups. Learn more in the Path expressions and filtering section
• Random number generator seed Integer
  Random seed value used in the pseudo-random distribution of elements from the input collection

• Asset collection

  • Assets Scene
    Scene containing elements which should be used as a collection to pick from for generating instances. All elements directly under the root of the scene are included in this collection
  • Sequencing Integer (selects an Enum index)
    Controls the order in which elements from the input scene should be picked when generating instances
  • Custom first element Boolean
    Controls whether the first element in the instances generation sequence should be the first element of the input scene, or one set by the user
    Note: this parameter is only visible when Custom sequence is selected for the Sequencing parameter
  • First element index Integer
    Sets the index of the element in the input Scene which should be the starting point of the Custom sequence
    Note: this parameter is only visible when Custom sequence is selected for the Sequencing parameter and the Custom first element parameter is set to True
  • Sequence String
    Sets the sequence of elements to be used when generating instances, written as a index values separated by a space – e.g. 1 3 5 4 2
    Note: Index values loop around if they are higher or lower than valid indexes for the input Scene collection – e.g. for indexes 1 2 3 4, 5 will correspond to 1 as in 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 (5) - 2 (6)
    Note 2: this parameter is only visible when Custom sequence is selected for the Sequencing parameter
    and the Custom first element parameter is set to True
  • Custom last element Boolean
    Controls whether the last element in the instances generation sequence should be the last element of the input scene, or one set by the user
    Note: this parameter is only visible when Custom sequence is selected for the Sequencing parameter
  • Last element index Integer
    Sets the index of the element in the input Scene which should be the ending point of the Custom sequence
    Note: this parameter is only visible when Custom sequence is selected for the Sequencing parameter and the Custom first element parameter is set to True

• Basis parameters

  • Basis Scene
    The Scene holding the reference Basis to be used
  • Basis mode Integer (selects an Enum index)
    The arrangement of the axis in the reference Basis:
    • Along X - ZXY;
    • Along Y - XYZ;
    • Along Z - YZX.
• Mode Integer
  The placement method of the input scene items instances
• Bounding box Scene
  The scene bounding box to use for determining the size of each cell in the duplication matrix
  Note: This parameter is only used when the Mode parameter is set to Matrix
• Duplications in X Integer
  The number or X-axis rows in the duplication matrix
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Matrix
• Duplications in Y Integer
  The number or Y-axis rows in the duplication matrix
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Matrix
• Duplications in Z Integer
  The number or Z-axis rows in the duplication matrix
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Matrix
• Offset X Float
  Applies an offset on each X-axis row of the duplication matrix
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Matrix
• Offset Y Float
  Applies an offset on each Y-axis row of the duplication matrix
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Matrix
• Offset Z Float
  Applies an offset on each Z-axis row of the duplication matrix
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Matrix
• Center Boolean
  Places the centre of the duplication matrix at the centre of the Basis
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Matrix
• Rotate assets Boolean
  Controls whether rotation should be applied to duplicated Items as they are moved around the Basis origin, or if orientation of Items should be preserved
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Circular
• Circular duplications Integer
  The number of items to duplicate around the Basis origin
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Circular
• Start angle Float
  The amount of rotation applied to the first Item around the Basis origin. The amount of rotation is interpolated from the first to the last duplicate
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Circular
• Range angle Float
  The amount of rotation applied to the last Item around the Basis origin. The amount of rotation is interpolated from the first to the last duplicate
  Note: This parameter is only available when the Mode parameter is set to Circular
