Parameters

• Output path
  • Output scene path String
    Sets the item name and possibly its containing groups. Learn more in the Path expressions and filtering section.
• Assets to scatter
  • 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.
  • 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 last element parameter is set to True.
• Subdivision mesh to populate Scene
  The input Scene holding the SubD meshes which instances should be scattered on.
• Face filter
  • Face filter String
    The tag of the face selection set which instances should be scattered on. Default means all faces are used. For any other value, faces belonging to a selection set which does not match the input tag are ignored for the scattering.
    Note: Not all 3D authoring packages let you set a tag on a face selection set. Packages which support this feature include Autodesk Maya or The Foundry's Modo, for instance.
• Random number generator seed Integer
  Random seed value used in the pseudo-random distribution of elements from the input collection.
• Scattering parameters
  • Instance scale Float
    Acts as a multiplier for the scale of scattered assets.
  • Scatter on edges Boolean
    Place instances on the middle of each segment of the control mesh.
  • Scatter on vertices Boolean
    Place instances on each vertex of the control mesh.
  • Scatter on faces Boolean
    Place instances on the centre of each face of the control mesh.
