Defect: OX MeshFromStrands Unable to apply hair from guides after using Prismatic/Cylindrical mode

Problem

Description:

(Don't know if this is a defect or a limitation)

Unable to apply hair from guides after using Prismatic/Cylindrical mode in mesh from strands.

Flat billboard mode works fine the issue is with Prismatic/Cylindrical mode.

Ornatrix V3 latest build -max 2015.

Steps to Reproduce:

1 - Apply Mesh from strands.

2 -Choose Prismatic/Cylindrical mode - check export guide mesh data.

3 - Apply cloth modifier etc..

4 -Apply Guides from Guide mesh modifier - It asks for grounding paramters - Ground to a base object.

5 - After that Can't Apply Hair from guides modifer on the stack.

Side Note: It would be great to have a "Radius" parameter for the Prismatic/Cylindrical mode and a "Width" Paramter for the Flat BillBoard modes in the mesh from Strands modifier.

Thank you.

EPHERE	Hello, Thank you for the report, however, this is not a bug. Only strip/billboard hair can carry guide data right now. I can see if I can squeeze this feature into one of the next builds however. Marsel Khadiyev (Software Developer, EPHERE Inc.)
