I added Wake under Add Object → Experimental. A dotted streamline field bending around a circular mass.
How to use Wake
- Open Studio → Add Object → Experimental → Wake
- A live Wake element is added to the active layer
- Tune parameters in the element card in the right sidebar (live preview on the canvas)
- Export plot-ready G-code when satisfied
Menu path: Add Object → Experimental → Wake
Key controls
- Field Lines: 66lines (20-120lines step 1)
- Field Width: 220mm (20-280mm step 1)
- Field Height: 260mm (20-320mm step 1)
- Flow Rotation: 0° (-90-90° step 1)
- Well Radius: 18mm (6-40mm step 1)
Tune field lines, field width, field height, flow rotation, and well radius in the right sidebar. Open Studio to see every control.
Shuffle (in the element card) re-rolls: seed, lineCount, flowRotation, pullStrength, perspective, dotSpacing, dotLength.
What I plot with Wake
- Pen-plotter art on Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality, and other pen-holder setups
- Layered linework exported as G-code with pen-up travel
- Combined with other V3 objects and modifiers in the same document
Frequently asked questions
Where is Wake in the menu?
Add Object → Experimental → Wake
What can I adjust?
Start with the key controls above, then fine-tune everything else in the right sidebar inside Studio.
Is this non-destructive?
Objects live on layers as elements. You can edit parameters anytime; delete the element to remove it.
Does Wake work with multi-pen plotting?
Yes. Use Pen Palette on a layer to split linework by color, or set per-path ink on modifiers like Offset.
