3D node
Triangulate
Re-cuts the mesh into triangles. Jitter randomises how each face is split, giving a more organic, less uniform look.
What it does
Triangulate is a 3D node: it builds, changes or lights geometry that Render 3D turns into a picture. It takes 3D shape in and gives 3D shape out.
Try it
Triangulate with some Jitter, then run Explode for a shattered low-poly feel.
Inputs and outputs
Inputs
- 3D shape geo
Outputs
- 3D shape out
Controls
Every control with a range can be driven by a modulator, a note, an audio level or a sketch.
| Control | Range or options | Default |
|---|---|---|
| operation | Transform, Array, Subdivide, Solidify, Extrude, Wireframe, Triangulate, Normals … | 6 |
| selection only | on or off | off |
| jitter | 0 to 2 | 1 |
