Overview

Multiplies geometry fields or a scalar broadcast value.

Geometry Beta field arithmetic. Multiplies the connected fields; a connected scalar broadcast or local Value supplies the scalar operand.

Usage

In practice

  • Use Field Multiply to intersect masks or scale a field by a scalar.
  • Use a Position Gradient or Noise Field as one operand when a deformation needs spatial weighting.

Notes / limitations

  • A connected Broadcast Scalar takes precedence over the local Value.
