Scale Elements Node
The Scale Elements Node scales groups of connected edges and faces. When multiple selected faces/edges share the same vertices, they are scaled together. The center and scaling factor is averaged in this case.
Inputs
- Mesh
Standard geometry input.
- Selection
Whether to scale each edge or face. True values mean the element will be scaled, false means it will be unaffected.
- Scale
The factor used to scale elements or groups of elements.
- Center
Origin of the scaling for each element. If multiple elements are connected, their center is averaged.
- Direction Single Axis Mode Only
Direction in which to scale the element. This input is normalized internally, so the length does not matter.
Properties
- Domain
The element type to transform.
- Face
Scale individual faces or neighboring face islands.
- Edge
Scale individual edges or neighboring edge islands.
- Scale Mode
- Uniform
Scale elements by the same factor in every direction.
- Single Axis
Scale elements in a single direction defined by the Direction input.
Output
- Mesh
Standard geometry output.
Examples
The node is useful when combined with the Extrude Mesh Node, especially in Individual mode, where face islands don't need to be scaled together.
