Problem Picking Subsets from Foam

I find that when I click on the Simulator from a Foam object I cannot get the roll down menu to select Spray or Foam. This happens even after loading the presets that have a foam component.

what if you try to choose a PF object? it uses the same UI mechanism

PF objects are ok

no idea. if the problem persist, send us a scene

Is the procedure to hit “h” when picking the Foam source?

no, if it appears it is some side effect

What is the procedure?

just pick the phoenix simulator that contains the foam, and a dialog with all the particle groups should appear

Anyone else having this problem?

I create a simulator and select liquid and check foam. I create a foam and select the simulator. No subsets are shown and the base simulator is selected. Am I missing a step?

did you perform simulation before the attempt of selection?

No, I thought the foam had to be set up prior to the simulation.

Prior the simulation the actual foam do not exist yet.

Thanks. Why have people been wishing that foam could be added after the sim if that’s the only way to do it?

because the foam is just a particle group, it has no privileges, like ability to be chosen before its creation.
