Sets the width of the Rectangle and Box icon types. Sets the length of the Rectangle and Box icon types, and the diameter of the Circle and Sphere icon types. To make it look like a box, increase the Height setting. If you add a particle system, and then change the icon type to Box, the icon continues to resemble a rectangle. The available size settings depend on which icon type you choose, and, again, are important only if you use the source icon as an emitter. This choice matters only if you use the source icon as the particle emitter. This setting affects only the viewport display of the logo changing it has no effect on the particle system.Ĭhoose the basic geometry of the source icon: Rectangle, Box, Circle, or Sphere. Sets the size of the Particle Flow logo, which appears at the center of the source icon, as well as the arrow that indicates the default direction of particle motion.īy default, the logo size is proportional to that of the source icon with this control, you can make it larger or smaller. Also, global events cloned in Particle View are not automatically wired to the original birth event. It's not possible to create instances of global and local events, so these options are unavailable in the Clone Options dialog, as a reminder. However, if you clone a global event in Particle View, the Clone Options dialog also lets you create instances of the cloned operators and tests. The Clone Options dialog offers only the Copy option. If you clone a particle source in a viewport with Shift+transform or Edit menu Clone, an equal number of copies of the global event appear in Particle View, each wired to the original birth event. To retain the local events, first delete the wire from the global event, and then delete the global event. However, if you delete a global event, Particle Flow also removes any local events used exclusively by that system, as well as the corresponding particle source icon. Any other events in the system remain in Particle View, along with their wiring. If you delete a particle source icon from the scene, Particle Flow converts the global event to an isolated local event in Particle View, retaining its operators with their settings intact. They have the same name, but selecting one does not select the other. The particle source icon is roughly equivalent to the corresponding global event in Particle View. Use these controls for setting global attributes, such as icon properties and the maximum amount of particles in the flow. Alternatively, click the title bar of a global event in Particle View to highlight it, and to access the emitter-level rollouts from the parameters panel on the right side of the Particle View dialog. When you select a source icon in the viewport, the Particle Flow emitter-level rollouts appear on the Modify panel.
