# Surface Fill

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page documents the **Surface Fill distribution node** of the Scene Nodes system in **Cinema 4D**. It fills a surface with a regular matrix distribution — expandable with indices and colors via an Iterate Collection node.

This Node returns a distribution of matrices along an assigned surface. An Iterate Collection Node can be used to output additional indices and colors, as already known from other Distribution Nodes.

Surfaces can be randomly covered with distribution points. The polygon size of the surface can be taken into account, e.g. to obtain a distribution only on the outer, larger surfaces of a ring..
