Attributes Brush#
The Attributes Brush allows users to paint Attributes and Primvars of selected meshes.
Using the Attributes Brush#
Once the Attributes Brush has been selected from the Paint Library it can be used to paint any Float, Float2, Float3 or Float4 Attribute or Primvar.
Note
Meshes need to be selected in the viewport in order to paint on them!

Visualization in the Viewport#
Currently there is no built in way to visualize the result of your painted attribute in the viewport. In the case of primvars:displayColor it will be rendered by the default material - in all other cases the user needs to manually create a material that consumes the painted attribute to visualize it.
