| - | The Position maps within Knald are generated from high to low polygonal meshes via [[the_baker_knald_1.1|The Baker]] & contain RGB information which correlates to specific positions found on the High Poly mesh. When multiple channels are rendered they form a volumetric gradient; with each pixel within the map pointing to a unique area of the mesh (no two values/colors within the position map contain duplicated positional data). They are viewable in the Position tab when selected. | + | The Position maps within Knald are generated from high to low polygonal meshes via [[the_baker_knald_1.1|The Baker]] & contain RGB information which correlates to specific positions found on the High Poly mesh.
