## Object Properties

### On Stopped

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_ONSTOP`

Enable this option if you want to wait until the object affected by the Deformer has stopped moving before it is affected by the Deformer.

### Local

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_LOCAL`

If enabled, the Deformer will only affect an object when the object's local coordinates are changed. The Deformer will have no effect if the affected object's global coordinates are changed.

### Strength

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_STRENGTH` · Range: [0..+∞%]

Use this slider to adjust the strength with which the points should jiggle.

### Stiffness

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_STIFFNESS` · Range: [0..100%]

Use this setting to define how quickly the points of a deformed object should return to their state of rest. The greater the value, the quicker this will happen.

### Map

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_STIFFNESS_MAP`

A vertex map can be dragged into this field with which each point of the object to be deformed can be precisely defined.

### Structural

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_STRUCTUAL_STIFFNESS` · Range: [0..100%]

This setting controls the subsequent jiggles that run across an object's surface and attempt to return the object to its initial state after it has been non-uniformly deformed. This non-uniform deformity can be a result of a vertex map containing non-uniform values for neighboring points loaded into the **Stiffness** field or if the affected object had already been deformed, e.g., by a Skin Object. In such instances, a greater **Structural** value will, on the one hand, result in greater movement of the surface and can also, in certain circumstances, prevent points with very low **Stiffness** values from breaking away.

### Map

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_STRUCTUAL_STIFFNESS_MAP`

A vertex map can be dragged into this field with which the **Structure** value for each point of an object to be deformed can be precisely defined.

The following image demonstrates the joint effect the **Stiffness** and **Structure** settings have on an object.

### Drag

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_DRAG` · Range: [0..100%]

Use this setting to define the loss of energy. Although jiggling will eventually stop even if this value is set to **0%**, increased values will accelerate the process.

### Map

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_DRAG_MAP`

A vertex map can be dragged into this field with which the **Drag** value for each point of an object to be deformed can be precisely defined.

### Motion Scale

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_MOTION_SCALE` · Range: [0..+∞%]

If **On Stopped** is enabled, this slider can be used to adjust the initial impulse for the jiggle once the movement has ceased.

Advanced

### Springs

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_SPRINGS` · Range: [0..100]

Use this setting to define the number of springs which will primarily affect the jiggle. The greater the number of springs, the greater the offset will be, i.e., the more languid the jiggling movement will be.

Springs set to zero will allow Forces (see Forces tab) to deform the mesh without any jiggle effect impacting deformations (so, for example, a turbulence force can influence the points of the mesh at full strength).

### Iterations

Parameter ID: `ID_CA_JIGGLE_OBJECT_ITERATIONS` · Range: [1..1000]

Increase this value to make the jiggle stiffer. The time needed to calculate the effect will increase as the value is increased.
