# Shear

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page documents the **Shear node asset** of the Scene Nodes system in **Cinema 4D**. It tilts geometry with optional height-based temporal offset — the node counterpart of the Shear deformer, suited to wobbling, leaning motion.

This effect can be calculated with a temporal offset that increases continuously along the height. A comparable function is offered by the [Shear](https://help.maxon.net/c4d/en-us/Content/html/OSHEAR.html.md) Deformer.
