Method
This node emits colour/ink into a field based on an input 3D object. The object is first voxelised, and the resultant voxels are used to contribute ink to the field.

Rotation Heading |
Rotate the object about the y-axis. |
Rotation Pitch |
Rotate the object about the x-axis. |
Rotation Bank |
Rotate the object about the z-axis. |
Scale X |
Scale along the x-axis. |

Attributes
Name |
Description |
---|
Colour |
Select a colour for the emitted field. |
Amount |
How strong the emitter is on the field. |
Blend Mode |
How the emitter blends into the field. See Blend Modes for details. |
Threshold |
Set a threshold for how much of a mesh surface must overlap with a voxel for ink to be emitted. |
Object Colours |
The colours of the input object are retained in the field. |
Object Lighting |
The lighting affecting the object affects the fields colour/ink values. |
Wireframe |
The field emitted its based on a wireframe of the model. |
Filled |
Fill the emitted object with ink. For good results, use a closed mesh. |
Emit Once |
When enabled, the object will only emit ink once into the field. |
Voxel Resolution |
Resolution of the voxels used when generating the ink shape. |
