The values for the width and height ports come from another node. Whenever a port is connected, the port view indicates that the value for this port comes from another node: Ports are displayed both in the port view (vertically) and the network view (horizontally). The input ports are also displayed in the port view: The input and output ports of a node are displayed in the network view. A node takes data in from its inputs, processes it, and sets a value in its output port, ready to be picked up by the next node. Ports represent the inputs and output of a node. Nodes can send data to each other using their ports. You can render a node by double-clicking it. The rendered node is the one that’s displayed in the viewer. We can examine what each worker node is doing by changing the rendered node. This is also a filter node, it filters the colored rectangle node. It takes the output of the color node and changes its rotation. Finally we create a rotate node and connect it to the color node.We call it a filter node, since it filters an existing shape. This node takes the output of the rect node and changes its color. We connect a colorize node to the rect node.This node is a generator: it generates a new shape. Every step along the way can be changed and animated. They are the basic building blocks of the application.īy connecting nodes together, you create your own assembly line where a new shape goes in and a complex result comes out. In the NodeBox assembly line nodes are the workers. Warszawas assembled at FSO in the early 1950s. After he or she has done their operation, the object is passed on to the next person who does his thing. Each worker does one thing, and one thing only. NodeBox uses a different model from traditional applications such as Photoshop or Illustrator.
