Initial fill - of a bottle ?

[StufishIT]

Any workaround to enable starting a simulation with a container like a bottle that is actually almost full? if I use a container that is identical in shape to the inside of the bottle, that seems to give me roughly a 1/3 full bottle of swirling fluid.

Hey, try this method: https://docs.chaosgroup.com/display/...ith+Containers

Note that if the scene scale is low, you are gonna need to increase the number of Steps per Frame so the liquid will not collapse on itself and lose its volume.

Thnaks Svetlin, I'm afraid that's almost exactly what I was doing, and with 4 steps per frame - which is plenty for the rest of the sequence, it collapsed to less than half of the volume !

This means it needs even more steps...

If you reach 20 and it's still not enough, then you might want to cheat using the Scene Scale.

How tall is the container actually? Sounds like a really small sim.
