Node Properties

When a node is selected in the nodes table, all its customizable fields appear in the Node Properties panel.

Use the Node Properties panel to review and modify the node configuration.

Handlers

Each field has different handlers based on:

• Field type

• Field constraints

For example, an sbool field is handled by a check box. A senum field is handled by a combo box.

Some fields, such as vectors, can be expanded to edit the coordinates. Other fields, such as colors or fonts, have dedicated pickers.

Fields that are not editable fields are gray.

Node Properties

Most fields are managed with common windows controls. However, there are some specific fields that have special handlers.

Multiple select

When you select multiple nodes, the field table shows only the properties that are common for the selected nodes. If the fields values are matching, the correct value displays in the table. If fields values are not matching across the nodes, a default starting value displays and a warning icon appears on the left side of the value. This indicates that field values are different on the selected nodes.

Field contextual menu

When right-clicking on any field in Node Properties, a context menu opens that allows you to copy the field's name or values to the clipboard.

Guidelines

• Copying the name to the clipboard will always be possible for any field of the node. The format will be: node.field.

• It will be possible to copy the name or value of the field (if available) even if multiple nodes are selected (multiple node selection enabled).

  In this case, the format will be as follows: node1.field;node2.field... (separated by a semicolon).

• Copying the value to the clipboard depends on its availability.

  If the value is not available, the Copy Value option will not display.

• In some cases, Copy Value option will expand into a submenu with two choices: one for copying the editor value and one for copying the internal value.

  For example: In case of Rotation field type, two options will be available, Euler Angles (copies the editor value expressed in Euler Angles) and Quaternion (copies its internal value represented by a Quaternion).
