Mirror
Method #
This node mirrors geometry from one side, and combines the output. UVs are maintained (although cut along the mirror plane), so using the mesh with the materials will result in mirrored materials too.
This deformer generates new polygons - so using it with meshes with high polygon counts may substantially impact performance. Proceed with caution.
Parameters
These properties control the 3D transforms of the node. Transforms will generally be inherited by child nodes, although they can be ignored through the Inherit Transform Channels attributes.
Parameter Details Position X Move along the local x-axis.
Position Y Move along the local y-axis.
Position Z Move along the local z-axis.
Rotation Heading Rotate around the local y-axis.
Rotation Pitch Rotate around the local x-axis.
Rotation Bank Rotate around the local z-axis.
Scale X Scale along the local x-axis.
Scale Y Scale along the local y-axis.
Scale Z Scale along the local z-axis.
Control the inheritance of the transforms from the parent.
Parameter Details Position Toggle inheritance of the Position from the parent.
Rotation Toggle inheritance of the Rotation from the parent.
Scale Toggle inheritance of the Scale from the parent.
World Position Only Inherit the world position from the parent only, rotation and scale will be ignored. Overrides above properties.
Inherit Time Toggle inheritance of time from the parent.
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
Parameter Details Subdivision Order Toggle whether the deformer is added before or after the object is subdivided.
- Before Subdivision : The deformation is applied before any subdivision is added.
- After Subdivision : The deformation is applied after subdivision, or inbetween if the subdivision level property is modified.
Subdivision Level The subdivision level at which the deformer is applied. Subdivision Order must be set to After Subdivision to Function.
Weightmap Add a weight map to determine where the deformer is more or less effective.
