Dupli Instances
===============

Functionality
-------------

This node exposes the Blender functionality of Instancing on object Vertices or Faces
to the Sverchok node tree being able to display many copies of the same object with a very
low memory impact.

The Node has to main modes Verts and Polys.
- In the **Verts** mode the instances will be placed at the inputted vertices.
- In the **Polys** mode the instances will be placed with a incoming list matrices,
being able to rotate and scale the instances.

Inputs
------

**Child**: Object(s) to instance.

**Vertices**: Location of instances.

**Matrices**: Matrices of the instances. (but scale is converted to uniform)


Limitations
-----------

It's worth mentioning that because the faces duplication relies on the area of the triangle to determine the scale, that the scale is a scalar, and therefor uniform (x,y,z are scaled equally).



Examples
--------

Setting 1.000.000 icospheres (whole node-tree update 0.069 secs)
