This setting consists of a trio of values. Each value represents one direction in space: X, Y, and Z. You can often find a certain notation for this trio: [ X,Y,Z ]. A position is always related to the scenes origin which is located at [ 0,0,0 ]. For this reason, it is also allowed to enter negative values. Zero is, of course, valid as well! The unit for position values is metres [m].

Rotation

Rotation works exactly the same way as position. Again, there is a trio of values indicating the rotation settings in degrees for [deg] for each axis. By default, an object has no initial rotation.

...

This parameter determines the expansion of an object in 3D space. In the same way as with “Position” and “Rotation” you have to specify scale with three values. Here, the unit is metres [m].

Shear

This is an feature which makes it possible to deform an object's basic geometry, but does not work in combination with RealWave meshes. "Shear" values are measured in metres [m].

Parent to

With this setting you can attach the current object to an animated (keys or dynamics) item. The object will perform exactly the same movements as the parent body and follow its animation path. When you click on the hyphen, RealFlow will open a new window with all suited nodes.
