Fluid Modifier
**************

The Fluid modifier is a container for a :doc:`Fluid Physics </physics/fluid/index>` simulation. It can be useful
for example, to simulate on a low-poly mesh then add a :doc:`/modeling/modifiers/generate/subdivision_surface`
after the Fluid modifier to improve the visual quality of the fluid without drastically increasing simulation times.


Options
=======

As the modifier is only a container its actual options can be configured in the *Physics Properties* tab.
See the :doc:`Fluid Physics Properties </physics/fluid/index>` for more information.


Example
