# Remap Spherical Body

## About this Block

**What it does:** The Remap Spherical Body block uses a Remap function to transform an Implicit Body from cartesian coordinates into spherical coordinates. This block preserves a true distance field so that the underlying Scalar field is not distorted during the transformation. Use the X and Y mapping length inputs to specify the length of the input field to be wrapped about the Sphere's circumference.

**Tips:**

* All Remap-based functions are centered on the world origin.

***

Remap an implicit body into a spherical space. The only values that will be mapped are values along the positive X-axis, the Y-axis between -length/2 and +length/2, and the positive Z-axis. This block will also attempt to scale the field values to compensate for distortion. If the compensation is not preferred, use the Remap Spherical Field block.
