GUIDES ON SPLINE


[ Guides are distributed along a spline using provided twist and length parameters ]

Similarly to generating guides from surface, guides can be generated along a 1-dimensional spline. This is particularly useful for creating things like eyelashes and feathers. Parameters that control distribution, randomness, and twist are present to aid the user in correctly positioning a mass of guides, which can be later directly converted into hair strands.


Parameters:

Twist - Globally defines the X,Y, and Z rotation of every guide transform.

Curl - Increments or decrements the twist parameter along the spline length parametrically.

Randomness - Adds deviation to the twist parameter along the three axes.

Other options are very similar to the guides from surface modifier.
