Inheritance Effector

Discover how to use the Inheritance Effector in Cinema 4D to procedurally transfer transformations and properties between objects, creating complex and synchronized motion graphics with ease.

The Inheritance Effector allows you to copy position, rotation, scale, color, and visibility attributes from a source object or effector to clones or other MoGraph elements, enabling layered and dynamic animation setups without keyframing. It supports blending multiple sources and offers customizable strength and falloff controls to fine-tune influence. Ideal for synchronizing animations, layering effects, and generating complex procedural motion, it integrates seamlessly with other MoGraph tools for flexible and non-destructive workflows.
