Radial Field

What is it about?

This page documents the Radial Field in Cinema 4D. It spreads its influence around an axis as an angular, pie-slice-shaped section — ideal for sweeping, clock-hand-style effects around a center.

The effect of the Radial Field. The transition in the cylinder sector can also be soft (right).

This field is a geometric field whose effect unfolds around an axis to be defined in the form of a cylinder section. The effect can be mixed with other fields and modifier layers in the corresponding field lists (e.g. for effectors or deformers).
