Using Generators as Particle Cell Sources
Like other objects, generators can be used as a source for particle cells. The following
example uses the Soft Gradient generator. To give your particle system more flexibility
and reduce processing strain on your computer, scale the generator down in the Generator
Inspector.
To use a generator as a particle cell source
1 Add the Soft Gradient generator to your project.
2 In the HUD or Generator Inspector, reduce the Radius value.
This example uses a Radius value of 40.
3 Reduce the Width and Height values.
