## Custom modifier

I attempted to mimic the scatter brush from Adobe Illustrator. I wanted a grassy horizon with a dynamic width. So this is what I came up with. Keep in mind the number of points of the shape and the number of copies. You will run out of memory and crash the browser.

You can import an SVG into a new component and center it. Then use the name in the _geometry_ field.

You can have the shapes follow the path.

Or rotate and scatter.

You can use boolean functions to mask the shape.

Works with type too.
