The relax point node smoothes cluster’ topology by iteratively applying a given relaxation algorithm.
Properties
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Settings | |
| Iterations | The number of time to additively apply the relaxing algorithm. Each iteration uses the previous’ iteration results. |
| Relaxing | This property lets you select which kind of relaxing you want to apply to the input clusters. Specifics of the instanced module will be available under its inner Settings section. See . |
| Influence | |
| Influence | Interpolate between the original position and the final, relaxed position. - 1.0 means fully relaxed- 0.0 means the original position is preserved. |
| Local Influence | If enabled, will use a per-point attribute value as Influence. |
| Progressive Influence | Switchs betweeen factoring the influence after each per-iteration (progressive) or once all iterations have been processed. This yields vastly different results, so don’t hesite to try it. |

| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Edge Position | If enabled, edge point’ position will be the result of that value used as a lerp between its start and end Vtx point. |
| Pruning | |
| Min Vtx Count | If enabled, only ouputs clusters that have more ( > ) Vtx than the specified number. |
| Max Vtx Count | If enabled, only ouputs clusters that have less ( < ) Vtx than the specified number. |
| Min Edge Count | If enabled, only ouputs clusters that have more ( > ) Edge than the specified number. |
| Max Edge Count | If enabled, only ouputs clusters that have less ( < ) Edge than the specified number. |
| Misc | |
| Refresh Edge Seed | If enabled, Edge points gets a fresh seed. |
| Build and Cache Cluster | If enabled, pre-build and cache cluster along with the point data. This has a slight memory cost associated to it, but can offer tremendous performance improvement. If disabled, cluster processors that comes down the line have to rebuild clusters from point data, which is very costly as they are also tested for errors and possible disconnections in the process. |
| Expand Clusters | If enabled, also build & cache another layer of cache data. This can have a significant memory cost, as well as a minimal performance overhead, but can greatly improve certain specific operations down the line. |
