Hey there!

Could you please explain how to use the field shape?
I’ve created the node, but I’m not sure how to connect it to a volume object in the material.

Thanks!

Hi there Michael - honestly I would have to have a look and see - I am not exactly sure how Juanjo developed it initially.

I will get back to you, but I think shape was generally meant for vectron and SDF.

Hi Ricky,

Have you had a chance to figure out how this works? I’m curious if you’ve managed to sort it out.

Hi there, no sorry...

We still need to look into this, although it is on the list of to-do - I would say it is of a lower priority atm.
Juanjo may have implemented it at some stage, but also not obvious to me and his docs don't give enough info.
