RenderGraphNodeShader¶

class RenderGraphNodeShader

Adds the surface shader or the displacement shader or both in the input attributes.

Hierarchy

class RenderGraphNodeShader < class RenderGraphNodeAttributes < class RenderGraphNode < class GraphNode < class SelectableNode < class DeletableNode < class Node

Members

RW	Mode	types.enum	The mode of the node, either "material" (sets surface, displacement and volume), "surface", "displacement" or "volume".
RW	Shader	types.string	The name of the Material to set

Plug plug

overrideinheritedattr

( string plugname , any value )

Overrides an attribute by its name, if the plug doesn't exist, it is created.

Plug plug

overrideinheritedattr

( string plugname , any value )

Overrides an attribute by its name, if the plug doesn't exist, it is created.

Inherited from class RenderGraphNode

RW	Invalid	nil	The invalidation plug. Invalidating this plug causes all RenderGraphOutputs of this node to be invalidated. This plug is dependent on all RenderGraphInputs
RW	NodePos	types.table	The node position in the graph, as {x,y} components
RW	State	nil	The node state, either "active", "bypass" or "disabled". When "disabled", all outputs values are nil. When "bypass", all outputs values are the node's first node input's value.

GraphInput input	createinput	( )	Create a GraphInput in the node
GraphOutput output	createoutput	( )	Create a GraphOutput in the node
GraphInput input	getinput	( string name )	Get an input by its name
string classname	getinputclassname	( )	Return the name of the GraphInput class to use
{GraphInput} inputs	getinputs	( )	List the node's inputs
GraphOutput output	getoutput	( string name )	Get an output by its name
string classname	getoutputclassname	( )	Return the name of the GraphOutput class to use
{GraphOutput} outputs	getoutputs	( )	List the node's outputs
it iterator	inputs	( )	An iterator on node's outputs
it iterator	inputs	( )	An iterator on node's inputs
bool isparent	isgraphparent	( GraphNode other )	Indicate if the other node is dependent on this node (i.e. if an output of self is directly/indirectly connected into any input of other.)
nil	removeinput	( name string )	Remove a GraphInput of the node
nil	removeoutput	( name string )	Remove a GraphOutput of the node

Inherited from class SelectableNode

boolean

Selected

R

True if the node is selected. Don't use this plug directly to select a node, use the Document's modifier select method.
