Parameters

Path Settings

  • Width The base width is multiplied by the width of each control point. If the overall width is 0, individual point widths cannot exceed 0.

  • Falloff Falloff of the path. This is added to the path width.

  • Falloff Curve Falloff steepness.

  • Noise Strength The noise is added to the path width.

  • Noise Scale Adjusts the noise scale along the path's length.

  • Closed Connects the first and last control point if enabled.

  • Height Offset Shifts the whole path upwards or downwards.

  • Flatten Flattens the heights of all control points.

Procedural Width

The Procedural Width parameters allows you to automatically set the node widths between the set width range.

  • Range The range between which the node widths will be set.

  • Mode Allows you to select from a bunch of different types like ascending, descending, zigzag or random distribution.

Spline Export

  • Export Spline Allows you to export the spline for usage in a render engine.
