  • Choose the Rock Types assigned to a particular seeder (at least one type must be selected)
  • Create new Rock Types (click on Create New and the Rock Type Library will open)
  • Edit Rock Types (click on Edit and the Rock Type Library will open)

  • Horizontal Velocity
  • Vertical Velocity

  • Initial Rotation (for Rigid Body analyses only)
