Linking

The linking view displays links between document nodes in two 2D tree views placed side by side.

Links represent one to one relations between nodes. For example, a RenderPass render the scene from the point of view of a Camera, a Primitive is shaded with a Material, etc.

You can create links of following types:

• Primitive <-> Material
• Primitive <-> Procedural
• RenderPass <-> RenderGraph
• RenderPass <-> Camera

Create a link between two nodes

1. Select the type of link using the combo box.
2. Select the first node to link.
3. Create a link by selecting the second node in the right tree of a Linking view.

You can delete links at any time.

Delete a link between two nodes

1. Select the type of link using the combo box.
2. Select the first node to unlink.

It's perfectly possible to create or delete multiple links at the same time using multiple selection or unselection.
