Edit particle attributes

You use the Attribute Editor to edit various display and motion attributes of a particle object after you create it.

To display the particle attributes in the Attribute Editor

1. Select the particle object.
2. Select Window > Attribute Editor to display the Attribute Editor.

   The table below lists the contents. For many sections, the attributes are displayed only after you create the corresponding dynamic effect.

   To instead edit the transform node attributes of a particle object, click the particle tab in the Attribute Editor.

   TipYou can also use the Attribute Spreadsheet or Channel Box to edit particle attributes. Be aware, however, that only the Attribute Editor displays all particle attributes that you can edit interactively.
