Transplants a hair system to a NURBS or polygon surface.

For details, see Transplant hair.

Transplant Hair Options

These are descriptions of the options in the Transplant Hair Options window.

Copy Follicles

Turn this on if you want new follicles to be created on the target surface.

Turn this off if you want to simply move the selected follicles to the target surface.

Match UV

Transplants the hair to the same UV on the target object. MatchUV is designed for moving hair between similar objects.

Nearest Point

Attaches the follicle to the nearest point on the target surface. Use this option for transplanting Hair Presets to geometry.

Place Hairs into

Select one of the following options:

Same Hair System

If this is selected, then the hair system(s) for the selected follicles will be duplicated if Copy Follicles is turned on. If Copy Follicles is turned off then the follicles will continue to use their current hair system.

<Existing Hair System>

Any existing hair systems will be listed, for example, hairSystem1. If you select an existing hair system then the transplanted follicles will be assigned this hair system. The look of the follicles may therefore change if the hair system is different from the source follicle's hair system.
