Hi all, I’m new to Blender and forgive me my maybe trivial question.

I want to create an array of spheres as seen on the left, but they should also vary on the X-axis according to the input pattern. Probably I’m missing something stupid…

Would be great, if somebody could help me.

    something like this?

    I think in your version it should work, but since you only have one value (distance) instead of 3 (eg. xyz or rgb), you really can’t displace in more directions. Use the color rather than the distance and vectormath instead of just regular math node :)

    edit:

    the voronoi texture doesn’t really seem to have more components to it than one. swapped to noise and now the spheres get translated to every direction

      Thanks for your answer. I actually want only to displace the objects on the z-axis, but every single one depending on the pattern and not only the complete rows. I want to achieve something like this:
