Here is a little video to show you haw to use this generator with volumetric light :
You can also use a any
3D Generator
The 3d generator of a 3D Layer represents a source of geometry.

with the
Random Points
Allow to display points randomly over a geometry

to produce almost the same results (except that points will be scattered over a surface instead of a volume).
This also make possible to sample custom

, which is not possible with Random points generator.
If you want to change the shape of this generator, you can select it either inside the
Element Tree
The hierarchical view of documents in Smode

directly inside it's parameters inside the
Parameters Editor
You don't have to search further, every parameters of a selected Element is there.

. To change the shape (position / orientation / size) select it in the element tree (red arrow):
Here is an example of a Random point generator with a box shape:
