 +====== Spline Proximity (node) ======
  
 This node computes the distance of the current point/shading spot to the closest point on the selected spline. This node computes the distance of the current point/shading spot to the closest point on the selected spline.
  
-{{:tools:s-tk:pasted:20190819-155100.png}}+The accuracy of this node relies on the number of Evaluation Steps defined in the [[tools:s-tk:primitive|]] or the [[tools:s-tk:prefs|]].
