distribution

Syntax

member(whichCastmember).modelResource(whichModelResource).emitter.distribution

Description

3D emitter property; indicates how the particles of a particle system are distributed across the emitter's region at their creation. The possible values of this property are #gaussian or #linear. The default value is #linear.

Example

In this example, ThermoSystem is a model resource whose type is #particle. This statement sets the distribution property of ThermoSystem's emitter to #linear, which causes the particles of ThermoSystem to be evenly distributed across their origin region at their birth.

member("Fires").modelResource("ThermoSystem").emitter.distribution = #linear
