Random Points
 | Random Points | This node provides random point clouds of different shapes. |
Renders a random cloud of points with adjustable bounding shape (HullGeometry property) and radius. By increasing the Hole property, points are pushed farther from the center towards the boundary surface. If the Seed value is zero, two Random Point nodes with exactly the same property values will create different clouds none the less. For every other value, two nodes create exactly the same point cloud if their seeds match.
In order to make the Points visible a Color Node must be added before the Random Points Node. If a Material Node is used it has to have an Emissive component. An ambient lighting makes the Points visible as well. This is different to the behavior of the other geometry nodes because the Points do not have any surface.
For ways to change how the individual points are rendered, see Draw Modes.
