10 Select the 3D Displacement node. In the tool UI, you can adjust the
following parameters:
DescriptionParameter
Amount of displacement in the image. Positive values make
the displacement protrude and negative values invert the
displacement.
NOTE The displacement occurs in Reaction units
(Amount times the displacement image values minus
the Offset).
Amount
The value that is subtracted from the displacement image
values before it is interpreted as a displacement. It is used to
Offset
determine the value of the displacement image that yields
no displacement.
Type
Surface Orients the displacement towards the surface
normal.
Toward Target Orients the displacement towards a
target which can be a light, locator, axis, camera, layer,
or 3D object.
RGB > XYZ Specifies the displacement by using the
explicit XYZ components of the displacement in the RGB
channels of the image.
