# Custom Set particle property

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page documents the **Set Particle Property node** in **Cinema 4D**. Within a Particle Node Modifier it writes new values into custom particle user properties — the output side of node-based particle control.

This Node can be used to assign new values to a user property of the particle within a [Particle Node modifier](https://help.maxon.net/c4d/en-us/Content/html/NET_MAXON_NODES_SIMULATION_PARTICLENODEMODIFIER_MODIFIER.html.md). You create user properties in the *Particle settings* of the [Preferences settings](https://help.maxon.net/c4d/en-us/Content/html/OPBDSCENE-PBDSCENE_FP_GROUP.html.md).
