We need to add thickness and segments. Select both letters by drawing a box around both letters
using the select tool

Time to build Particle FlowPress the number six on your keyboard and the
box below will appear
![Page 10: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
In the box below we will assemble the flow

Starting out we will need an empty flow. Drag from the bottom and place in the top
![Page 12: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Click on PF Source. In the properties box scroll up until you see viewport. Change to 100
![Page 13: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Add a birth by dragging it up form the bottom
![Page 14: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Link the two boxes. Drag from the blue dot down to the circle
![Page 15: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Click on birth. In the properties box change emit stop to 0 and amount to 2000
![Page 16: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Add Position object. Drag from the bottom. When the bottom of the box turns blue
release the mouse button
![Page 17: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Position Object is now attached.
![Page 18: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
We are going to turn the A into a B
![Page 19: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Select position object. In the properties box select add then click on the B in the view port. It should look like it is covered with
particles
![Page 20: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Add Script Operator just like you added the Position Object
![Page 21: Particle Flow Using TEXT](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568147a4550346895db4e07a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Select Script Operator. In the properties box select edit script

Between on ChannelsUsed pCont do and on Release pCont do add the
following line of code. Remember this is coding and has to be typed exactly as
it is here go to next side for code

Code( pCont.useVector = true pCont.usePosition = true) on Init pCont do ( )on Proceed pCont do (count = pCont.NumParticles()
for i in 1 to count do(pCont.particleIndex = i pcont.particleVector = pCont.particlePosition
))
