V

Number

Default 0.5

V parameter on plane

W

Number

Default 0.5

Oriented point

Creation method#

There are two options for creating the Point Oriented node.#

  • The first way to create the Point Oriented node is using the search list, which is opened by double left-clicking in the workspace. You can write the name of the node you need or words associated with this node.
    • pntOrient, orientPoint
  • The second way is to select the Point Oriented node from the menu that opens from the top left.
    • Menu > Tool > Vector > Point Oriented

Steps#

  • Create the Point Oriented node.
  • Connect the plane-defining coordinate space to the first port.
  • Connect the U parameter on a plane to the second port.
  • Connect the V parameter on a plane to the third port.
  • Connect the W parameter on the plane (elevation) to the fourth port.

After creating a node, connect the plane-defining coordinate space to the first port. Connect the U and V parameters on a plane to the second and third ports. The W parameter on the plane (elevation) to the fourth port. On the output port, we will get a result oriented point.
