The XY Param Node’s interface consists of a two-dimensional grid where a circular handle can be moved along the X (horizontal) and Y (vertical) axes. X and Y are both constant values ranging from 0 to 1. The circular handle is draggable, allowing real-time adjustment of two parameters simultaneously.
It’s useful for building custom Nodes, or controlling multiple Node params from a single place.
Inputs
This Node has no inputs.
Settings
Value X
The first output value. This is also the value set by the horizontal position of the 2D handle.
Value Y
The first output value. This is also the value set by the vertical position of the 2D handle.
Theme
Sets the param editor’s color. This setting is visual, and has no effect on the output.
Step
Sets the value precision. For example, if this is set to 0.1, possible values are 0, 0.1, 0.2, etc. for both the X and Y value.
Size
Sets the appearance size on the Patcher. Affects both the XY Param Node itself, as well as its appearance on custom Nodes.
Outputs
X Output
The value specified by the Value X setting. This value is always constant, and thus enables constant folding in connected Nodes if they support it.
Y Output
The value specified by the Value X setting. This value is always constant, and thus enables constant folding in connected Nodes if they support it.
