Nonlinear Deformer Attributes

Select one of the following options.

Low Bound

Specifies lower extent of the flare on the deformer’s local negative Y axis. Values can be negative numbers or zero. Use the slider to select values from negative 10.000 to 0.000. Default is -1.000.

High Bound

Specifies upper extent of the flare on the deformer’s positive local Y axis. Values can be positive numbers only (minimum value is 0). Use the slider to select values from 0.000 to 10.000. Default is 1.000.

Start Flare X

Specifies the amount of flaring from the deformer’s X axis at the Low Bound. The flaring progresses along the deformer’s local X axis, varying according to the value of Curve. Use the slider to select values from 0.000 to 10.000. Default is 1.000.

Start Flare Z

Specifies the amount of flaring from the deformer’s Z axis at the Low Bound. The flaring progresses along the deformer’s local Z axis to the High Bound, varying according to the value of Curve. Use the slider to select values from 0.000 to 10.000. Default is 1.000.

End Flare X

Specifies the amount of flaring from the deformer’s X axis at the High Bound. The flaring starts at the Low Bound and progresses along the deformer’s local X axis to the High Bound, varying according to the value of Curve. Use the slider to select values from 0.000 to 10.000. Default is 1.000.

End Flare Z

Specifies the amount of flaring from the deformer’s Z axis at the High Bound. The flaring starts at the Low Bound and progresses along the deformer’s local Z axis to the High Bound, varying according to the value of Curve. Use the slider to select values from 0.000 to 10.000. Default is 1.000.

Curve

Specifies the amount of curvature (the profile of the flaring curve) between the Low Bound and the High Bound. A value of 0 specifies no curvature (linear interpolation). Positive values specify outward, bulging curvature and negative values specify inward, hourglass-shaped curvatures. Use the slider to select values from -3.000 to 3.000. Default is 0.000.
