VolumeScatter

Scatter points according the voxel values of a VDB grid.

user

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

enabled

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

filter

The filter used to control which parts of the scene are processed. A Filter node should be connected here.

parent

This plug has been deprecated in favour of using a filter to select the volume.

destination

The location where the points primitives will be placed in the output scene. When the destination is evaluated, the ${scene:path} variable holds the location of the source mesh, so the default value parents the points under the mesh.

Tip

${scene:path}/.. may be used to place the points alongside the source mesh.

name

The name given to the PointsPrimitive - this will be placed under the location specified by “destination”.

grid

Name of grid in VDBObject in which points will be scattered.

density

This density is multiplied with the value of the grid to produce a number of points per unit volume.

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.
