Move hairs with wires

The Wire-Pin tool generates guide curves that deform individual fur strands or groups of strands. You can use it to make very specific changes to individual strands (setting up a custom flyaway, for instance), or to create a set of guide curves to use as inputs for other operations such as clumping. You can also select an area for detailing with the Wire-Pin tool. For an overview of the tool, refer to Wire-Pin tool.

To move hairs with wires:

1. Select the Fur node.
2. Do one of the following:
   • In the Wig Grooming shelf, select Wire-Pin Tool .
   • From the Wig menu, select Wig > Grooming Tools > Wire-Pin.
3. Click and drag to select an area of hair to edit. This creates a Wire Pin node.

To comb individual or groups of hairs:

1. Use the Comb Tool with the Wire Pin node selected to click and drag (comb) individual or groups of hairs.
