This compound twists the strand starting from its base at the particle. This creates a twist around either the particle's
local axis or the strand's axis, like a spiral.
Create strands, then plug this compound's Execute output into a PostSimExecute port on the Simulation Root node or in a port
on the ICETree node.
For information, see Shaping the Strands [ICE Particle Simulations].
Tasks: Particles/Strands
Output Ports: Execute

Select the method by which the strand is twisted:
-
Twist Around Strand Local Axis uses each strand's vector to twist the shape around the strand.
-
Twist Around Particle Local Axis uses each particle's local orientation axis as the vector to twist the shape around the strand.

|
The number of degrees in which the strand is rotated around the vector type you selected. A value of 360 is a full rotation.

This curve defines how the twist amount is distributed along the strand, starting from the strand's base (key on the left)
to the tip (key on the right).
