Seeds

Scatters points evenly over the surface of meshes. This can be particularly useful in conjunction with the Instancer, which can then apply instances to each point.

user

Container for user-defined plugs. Nodes should never make their own plugs here, so users are free to do as they wish.

out

The processed output scene.

enabled

The on/off state of the node. When it is off, the node outputs the input scene unchanged.

in

The input scene

parent

The location of the mesh to scatter the points over. The generated points will be parented under this location.

name

The name given to the object generated - this will be placed under the parent in the scene hierarchy.

density

The number of points per unit area of the mesh, measured in object space.

densityPrimitiveVariable

A float primitive variable used to specify a varying point density across the surface of the mesh. Multiplied with the density setting above.

pointType

The render type of the points. This defaults to “gl:point” so that the points are rendered in a lightweight manner in the viewport.
