Houdini 12 Nodes Surface nodes

Transforms the input geometry relative to a specific axis.

This is useful to derive an animatable channel to transform an object about a single axis.

Parameters

Group

Subset of geometry to transform.

Group Type

The type of elements referenced in the Group field.

Origin

The pivot to do the transform with.

Direction

The orientation of the axis to transform with.

Translate

Amount of translation along the axis.

Rotate

Amount of rotation about the axis.

Scale

Non-uniform scaling along the axis.

Recompute Point Normals

Recomputes point normals if they exist.

Preserve Normal Length

Normal lengths remain unaffected.

Invert Transformation

Use the inverse of the transformation. This is the transformation which undoes the specified transformation. Two transform SOPs with all parameters but this equal will cancel out each other’s transformation.

Local variables

CEX, CEY, CEZ

The centroid of the input

GCX, GCY, GCZ

The centroid of the input group

XMIN, XMAX

The X extents of the bounding box of the input

YMIN, YMAX

The Y extents of the bounding box of the input

ZMIN, ZMAX

The Z extents of the bounding box of the input

SIZEX, SIZEY, SIZEZ

The size of the bounding box of the input
