# Plain

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page describes the **Plain node asset** of the Scene Nodes system in **Cinema 4D**. It applies simple movements and rotations to clone positions or geometry — the basic transformation effector of node setups.

This Node can be used to calculate simple movement and rotations and, for example, transfer these to the positions of clones or as a deformation onto geometry.
