Motion Effects Reference

The Motion Effects Tool Parameters are described below.
All Motion Effects settings are specified in the Tool Parameters.

Delete Attributes

Deletes previously-applied Motion Effects attributes from the selected ball joint.

Enable

Enables Motion Effects as the root for the selected ball joint.

Gravity

Specifies the distance (translation) the object is pulled downwards in each frame.

Limit Angle

Specifies the maximum angle that each ball joint can move, as described by a conical shape, measured from its initial position. Specifying 0.0 renders the joint immobile, and 180.0 allows complete freedom of movement.

Elasticity Settings

Settings which describe how strongly ball joints with Motion Effects applied will tend to return to their original positions.

Enable

Enables Elasticity effects.

Strength

Specifies the degree to which the object will tend to return to its original position. Specifying 1.0 renders the joint immobile.

Wind Settings

Applies a random wavering effect of the amount (Translation) specified.

Enable

Enables Wind effects.

Translation

Specifies the maximum translation for each direction in XYZ world coordinates.

Frame Count

Specifies the number of frames over which the movement (specified by the Translation values) is applied. A larger Frame Count results in a slower wavering effect.
