User Manual

 Auto: Automatically reads and passes on the metadata that may be in the image.
 Space: Displays a Gamma Space Type menu where you can choose the correct gamma
curve of the image.
 Log: Brings up the Log/Lin settings, similar to the Cineon tool. For more information,
see Chapter 36, “Film Nodes” in the Fusion Studio Reference Manual or Chapter 84 in
the DaVinci Resolve Reference Manual.
Remove Curve
Depending on the selected Gamma Space or on the Gamma Space found in Auto mode, the
Gamma Curve is removed from, or a log-lin conversion is performed on, the material, effectively
converting it to a linear output space.
Motion Blur
As with other 2D nodes in Fusion, Motion Blur is enabled from within the Settings tab. You may
set Quality, Shutter Angle, Sample Center, and Bias, and Blur will be applied to all moving
particles.
NOTE: Motion Blur on 3D mode particles (rendered with a Renderer 3D) also requires
that identical motion blur settings are applied to the Renderer 3D node.
pSpawn [pSp]
The pSpawn node
pSpawn Node Introduction
The pSpawn node makes each affected particle act as an emitter that can produce one or more
particles of its own. The original particle continues until the end of its lifespan, and each of the
particles it emits becomes wholly independent with a lifespan and properties of its own.
As long as a particle falls under the effect of the pSpawn node, it will continue to generate
particles. It is important to restrict the effect of the node with limiters like Start and End Age,
Probability, Sets and Regions, and by animating the parameters of the emitter so that the node
is operative only when required.
Inputs
By default, the pSpawn node has a single orange input. Like most particle nodes, this orange
input accepts only other particle nodes. You can enable an image input by selecting Bitmap
from the Style menu in the Style tab. Also, two region inputs, one for bitmap and one for mesh,
appear on the node when you set the Region menu in the Region tab to either Bitmap or Mesh.
The colors of these inputs change depending on the order they are enabled.
