Hello - is it by design or a limitation that the Hair option on the Octane Object tag disappears when applied to a cloner with a spline as a child?

Also, the Hair option does not appear when the tag is placed directly on the spline too.

Thanks.

Try converting the spline.

That was it - thank you! I thought it worked once on "parametric" splines...

Hi,
if you need to keep the spline parametric, eg. for animation purpose, you can parent the MoGraph Cloner to a Connect object, and apply the Octane Object tag to it:
