Description:

Instead of just pushing the splines around, it would be nice to be able to make a group of hair splines move smoothly toward a designated attractor point/s. It could be used along with some of the brushes to get certain effects. You might even have turbulence, noise, and vortex settings to help capture a more natural wind blown look, say, without using dynamics.

EPHERE	Thank you for the report. This is similar to the force field approach to hair styling which the very original Ornatrix back in 2003 used to have. But attractor points are more intuitive than creating localized force fields. I suppose it'd have to be a separate modifier which would also allow specifying groups of hairs and localize them to each point. It also sounds similar to surface comb modifier, but in 3d instead of just being on the surface. Marsel Khadiyev (Software Developer, EPHERE Inc.)
