I created a stem using Geomtry Nodes and now I would like to instance it in a circle to have kind of a bush, but I can't find the way to instance an object created with geometry nodes. I don't want to apply the geometry nodes modifier because on its geometry nodes set up I created some random variables (for the size and rotation of the leaves) that I would like to keep. enter image description here

The only solution i know is...add another object with GN like this:

GN1:

GN2:

result:

So it is still procedural and you don't have to apply - but you have two objects with two different geometry nodes modifiers.

  • Trying to duplicate this. Seeing the answer without the steps in between isn't helping.

    How do you get from GN1 to GN2?

  • First create a cube and a sphere. Add GN to cube (that’s GN1). Then add a torus. Add GN to torus with GN2. – Chris Aug 12 '21 at 06:58
  • @unkerjay: you should write: isn‘t helpful for you or beginners - but isn’t helpful isn’t true, else I wouldn’t have got the check and an upvote…but yeah, if you never used geometry nodes it might be unclear. – Chris Aug 12 '21 at 07:01

    I stand corrected. "isn‘t helpful for me or beginners" – unkerjay Aug 14 '21 at 02:53
