EntryWhat it does
Strand ShapeA shape parameter that controls the transition in thickness between the root and tip. Negative values make the primitive rounded more towards the top, the value of zero makes the primitive linear, and positive values make the primitive rounded more towards the bottom.
Diameter RootMultiplier of the hair width at the root.
TipMultiplier of the hair width at the tip.
Diameter ScaleMultiplier for the Root and Tip values. This can be used to change the thickness of the hair.
Close TipSets the thickness at the tip to zero, even when using a non-zero tip multiplier.
