Element
The antler is one element of the moose head.
An element is one of two or more individual mesh objects (that is, groups of
contiguous faces) grouped together into one larger object. For example, if you
attach one box to another, you create one mesh object from the two boxes.
Each box is now an element of the object. Any function you perform on that
object affects all its elements. However, you can manipulate the elements
independently at the Element sub-object level.
Emitter
An emitter is an object that emits particles; particles are born, or first enter
the scene, at the emitter's location. By default, Particle Flow uses the
source
icon
on page 2748 as an emitter, but alternatively any other object in the scene
can emit particles using the
Position Object operator on page 2773 .
