Comb

Overview

The Comb node is used to apply the shape of a Groom to Fibres or Particles. When applied to Fibres they will be deformed to follow the shape and direction of the Groom, when applied to Particles the N attribute ( by default ) will be set to an average of the direction of the Groom. If the Comb Attribute is supplied Yeti will actually create/modify the attribute and set to an average of the direction of the Groom.
