# Edge Distribution

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page describes the **Edge Distribution**, a node asset for the Cloner object in **Cinema 4D**. Typical uses include placing trims, welds or light strips exactly along the edges of hard-surface models without preparing splines or selections first.

This distribution can be loaded directly via the **Browse** button of a [Cloner object](https://help.maxon.net/c4d/en-us/Content/html/OMOGRAPH_CLONER.html.md) if the *Cloner* object uses the *Advanced* mode. This distribution places and scales clones along the edges of an object.\
If you need more options, also have a look at the [Rivet Distribution](https://help.maxon.net/c4d/en-us/Content/html/COM_ROCKETLASSO_NEUTRON_ASSET_DISTRIBUTION_RIVET.html.md), that expands on the concept of this edge based distribution.

The Edge Distribution offers various spacing, scaling and coloring options for clones placed along the edges of a geometry.
