Transform

Name Description
Position X Move its position along the x-axis in local space.
Position Y Move its position along the y-axis in local space.
Position Z Move its position along the z-axis in local space.
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.
Scale Y Scale along the y-axis.
Scale Z Scale along the z-axis.

Inherit Transform Channels

Toggle which transform channels should be inherited. By default, all are on.

Attributes

Name Description
Subdivision Order Toggle whether the deformer is added before or after the object is subdivided.
Subdivision Level The subdivision level at which the deformer is applied.
Vertex Source Mode How vertexes are selected to be used by the deformer.
  • Vertex Positions, Vertexes are chosen based on their positions in the scene.
  • Chunks, Vertexes are chosen based on the enclosed section of the mesh they are used.
Slice Thickness How thick the gap between each slice is.
Slice Scale How large each slice in in height.
