Spline Deformer 2
Method #
This node deforms the parent mesh along the given spline. The bounds of the mesh in the dimension specified by the Deform Axis parameter are used with the Spline Time parameters to determine how to map the geometry to the spline; for example, a Spline Time Min of 0 and a Spline Time Max of 1, and a Deform Axis set to Z, will map the parent mesh to the entire length of the spline using its Z axis, so the vertex with minimum Z will be at the start of the spline and the vertex with maximum Z will be at the end of the spline.
This node requires a node that provides a spline be connected to the Spline input. Nodes that provide a spline include Spline and Editable Spline nodes, and geometry nodes which have been converted to splines. If the source provides multiple splines, the deformed geometry will be duplicated to each spline.
Parameters
Parameter Details Deform Axis The axis to perform the deformation.
Spline Time Min The minimum of the used spline range, between 0 and 1.
Spline Time Max The maximum of the used spline range, between 0 and 1.
Spline Time Offset The offset applied to the spline time min and max values.
