Inputs

Bypass

This input can be used to activate (false) or deactivate (true) the function of the node with a Boolean value.

Matrix

Here you can specify an additional matrix to place the instantiated shapes relative to the method selected as Reference Transform Mode.

Op Input

Here you can find the instanced forms.

Reference

Here you link to the shape or structure you want to create an instance of.

Transform Mode

Use this setting to specify how the matrix of the instantiated shape is to be used:

  • Ignore Transform: The instance only uses the geometry of the reference and can thus be individually placed, rotated and scaled via "Op Input" and "Matrix". Note that when instantiating object groups or distributions, all shapes in the instance will be placed in the same position.
  • Use Local Transform: The instance preserves the local coordinates od the referenced shapes.
  • Use global Transform: The referenced shapes take on the global coordinates in the instance.

Outputs

Op Output

Here you can find the instanced forms.

Scope

Geometry

The geometry information of the instantiated shapes is output here.

Matrix

The matrices of the instantiated shapes are output here. The result also depends on the Reference Transform Mode.
