Particle Emitter Object

Basic Coord. Particle Emitter Include

Emitter

Emitter Type

Choose whether the particles will be emitted in the shape of a cone or pyramid.

X-Size [0..+∞m]
Y-Size [0..+∞m]

Give the size of the emitter. You can also scale the emitter by selecting the Scale tool and dragging in the viewport.

Angle Horizontal [0..360°]
Angle Vertical [0..180°]

These parameters set the value of the emission angle.

If Emitter Type is set to Cone, the horizontal range is from 0° to 90°; with the Emitter Type set to Pyramid, the horizontal range is from 0° to 360° and the vertical range is from 0° to 180°.

For example, to create a radial emitter, set Emitter Type to Pyramid, set X-Size and Y-Size both to 0, Angle Horizontal to 360° and Angle Vertical to 0°.
