or intensity of the color. Move the Saturation slider to determine the purity
of the color. The higher the saturation, the less gray the color.
Reference
References are like "one-way" instances. Referenced objects are based on the
original object, as are instances, and can have their own unique modifiers.
Any modification made to the original object is passed on to its references,
but any modification made to a reference is not passed back to the original.
The one-way effect is useful, since you can maintain an original that will affect
all its references, while the references themselves can take on individual
characteristics.
If you are modeling heads, for example, you might want to keep a family
resemblance in your characters. You could model basic features on the original,
then model specifics on each reference.
In the modifier stack, a solid line separates the reference from its parent object,
so you can see that the effect of modifiers on the reference will not affect the
parent object or other references to it.
Reference Object
In Particle Flow on page 2713 , a reference object is a geometry object or
collection of objects used as particles by the
Shape Instance operator on page
2825 . It can be a single object, a group, a hierarchy, or even a compound object
consisting of several elements.
Refine
In NURBS modeling, refining means to increase the number of CVs on a curve
or surface. Refining does not change the curvature of the curve or surface.
