Title: Why Frequency factor for scatter on splines is disable?
Post by: fabio81 on 2023-02-16, 09:25:31
Hi guys
,
I wanted to understand the reason for this choice. Previously known as a bug (Internal ID=969912371), now it has been disabled.
I find this feature could be very useful.

Suppose I have 5 plant objects, with the spline distribution function I have the possibility to distribute them in the whole scene with different splines and with different density.
Otherwise, instead, I should duplicate the scatter object including the plant objects inside.
I don't know if I explained myself

I mean this that you now see is no longer viable but it actually never worked for me.

Hi guys, we disabled this because (for now) to avoid any confusion as it was not supported in the scatter core and therefore, it wasn't working as you would have expected. Fear not though as we have it marked as a feature request for a future release. Apologies for any confusion here. :)
