Hi,

I see that I can select faces and create Ornatrix fur with the selected faces.

Question:

How do I change the faces which was used to create after the creation? is there a Set Selection or some button which I can add more os less faces to the actual ornatrix hair/fur?

Hi,

I guess you are referring to the faces auto set in Guides from Mesh when you create the object.

Unfortunately changing these is not supported yet. We may try to implement this using Selection Sets in the future.

You can try doing it manually using the node graph, but I don't know if that would work. 

I will take it as a feature request anyway and see what can be done in the future.

Great! thanks for the reply Jeordanis!
Looking Forward to this feature :)
Thanks Cool

We have determined that this is not a good idea.

Ornatrix hairs depend on the distribution mesh. Changing the mesh instead of regrounding the roots will destroy the groom because you are removing the faces that the guides depend on. 
So, changing the selected faces is like changing the topology of the distribution mesh.
