Hi guys,

I am about to freak out. I am working on a tinkerbellish fairy emitting some simple particles (Render Type: Points) at its tail. To make them sparkle in the compositing, I want to change their size on a per particle basis. How do I do that? There is no PointSizePP attribute or something like that in in the General Attributes section.
Any idea?

make them spheres, and use a radiusPP to drive the size. unfortunatelly there's no hardware render line or point PP values available, I guess it's a limitation of the current hardware render.
