An item transform that allows you to numerically position the emitter item in XYZ space.

An item transform that allows you to numerically set the rotation of the emitter item. Rotation transforms originate from the Position value.

NOTE:  Changing the angle of the rotation doesn't produce noticeable results unless the Cone angle of the emitter is below 180°.

Sets the order that rotations are applied to the emitter item. Changing the order that rotations are applied can sometimes help to reduce or eliminate gimbal lock.

An item transform that allows you to numerically set the size of the emitter item. Scale transforms originate from the Position value. Since particles themselves have no inherent size, the scale transform acts to scale the emission values, acting as a multiplier on the particle attributes.

Resets the selected transform values to (0,0,0) returning the items back to their default state.

Resets the chosen transform property values to 0, leaving the Center position intact. This is done by adding a negative transform item to the Mesh Item's channels.

Transform items are the channel groups associated with an item that store its transform values, controlling its position, rotation and/or scale. By default, new items do not have any transform items associated with them, even though they are visible within the Properties panel. This is useful as an optimization as only the necessary transforms are added on an as-needed basis, reducing scene overhead. There are several ways to add them. One is by simply transforming the target item with one of the various transform tools (or by editing the value's input field). This action causes the particular transform item to be added automatically to the Channels viewport list. The Add function can also be used to add the selected set of transforms to the Channels list while keeping the default 0,0,0 values (a necessary step for referencing, in order to override the channels, they must first exist).

Turns the generation of particles from the emitter on or off. When the emitter is disabled, its settings don't produce any results.

Determines how the particles themselves are emitted over time: Random means that statistically the emission rate is accurate, but the time between individual particle emissions is irregular. Uniform produces regular, evenly-spaced individual particle emissions.

Controls the number of particles emitted per second.

The initial number used when generating the random emission values. Each seed produces different random results. You need to change this when there are multiple emitters in a scene with identical settings.

Determines the overall emission range outward from the central point, generating a particle and emitting it in a random direction within the specified range. When set to 180°, the particles radiate outward equally in all directions, like a point emitter. When set to less that 180°, the particles radiate only within the specified range. Setting the value to less than 90° produces a cone-shaped emission, similar to a water hose.

Allows you to define a soft falloff range on the outside edge of the defined Cone Angle, where the probability of emission is reduced, attenuating over the specified range.

Determines the speed the particle is traveling at birth. Particles remain the same speed until affected by a force or a collision. Gravity and drag are two forces that can be generated by the particle simulation item automatically.

Randomly varies the speed of individual particles within the specified value, making the particles appear more varied and natural.

When enabled, the individual particles inherit the speed of the emitter item, if it is in motion, adding its speed to the Initial Velocity'. When disabled, the particles ignore the movement of the emitter item.

Offsets the location where the particles generate from, producing a larger area of emission. When set to 0, all particles originate from the same location. When the Start Radius is greater than 0, particles originate randomly across the disc, created from the offset.
