Quick field reference

Descriptions for the existing Quick settings. Select a question mark beside a field to also see its current source value.

Shape / motion preset

Applies the selected existing Snowstorm shape and motion preset to the active particle. Use the full Emitter and Motion tabs to inspect its source-backed settings.

Timing preset

Burst applies the instant-emission preset. Steady applies the continuous-emission preset. Inspect amount and rate in the Emitter tab.

Physics preset

Applies the selected existing collision and motion preset. None, Solid, Smoke, Ball and Paper expose the supplied preset choices.

Sprite preset

Applies the selected supplied sprite preset, including its texture and appearance settings. The Texture and Look tabs expose the resulting values.

Speed / initial velocity

Edits the particle initial speed or velocity through the Quick controls. The Motion tab exposes the same source value and exact expression controls.

Amount

Edits steady rate, instant count or manual maximum according to the active emission mode.

Particle lifetime

Sets the maximum age of each particle. This is separate from the emitter active time.

Random rotation

Toggles the supplied random initial-rotation expression. The full Rotation settings expose the resulting expression.

Glow in the dark

Disables environment lighting so the particle is displayed at full brightness. It does not add a world light source.
