Affect
- Affect
Chooses which branches are affected. Active Branches uses the latest generated layer. Active + Descendants also includes growth from that layer. Active Generated Hierarchy additionally includes ancestors created by that same generated contribution. Entire Input uses everything arriving here. Attached children follow a moved parent even when they are not reshaped themselves.
Shape
- Base Scale
Multiplies branch base radius. One keeps its thickness.
- Tip Scale
Multiplies tip radius. Lower values make a finer end.
- Profile Power
Changes the transition between base and tip scales. One is an even transition.
