# Remap Cylindrical Field

## About this Block

**What it does:** Uses a Remap function to transform a scalar field from XYZ coordinates into cylindrical coordinates.

**Tips:**

* All Remap-based functions are centered on the world origin.
* Use the Y mapping length input to specify the length of the input field to be wrapped about the Cylinder's circumference.

***

Remap a scalar field into a cylindrical space. The only values that will be mapped are values along the positive X-axis, and the Y-axis between -length/2 and +length/2. This block will not attempt to scale the field values to compensate for distortion. If the compensation is preferred, use the Remap Cylindrical Body block.
