Use a phenomenon in a scene

To use a phenomenon in a scene, you must load the phenomenon with the Shader Manager.

After the Phenomenon is loaded, you can find it in the Miscellaneous section of the Create Render Node window, unless you set the Apply flag, in which case, you’d find it in the appropriate section. (See Write a shader declaration file for more information on the Apply flag.)
