The "Node Params" window is dynamically adjusted to your node selection and provides all available parameters and settings. Parameters are subdivided into three main tabs. It is possible to select one, two or all three tabs to customize the number of displayed parameters.
- Each tab contains a subpanel with a set of parameters, e.g. “Node”, “Particles”, Rigid Body”, “RealWave”, and so on.
- Some parameter fields are expandable with a click on “+”. Here you will find parameter sliders, notes, → gradients and → colour settings.
- Spatial parameters, like position or rotation, always consist of three values for the X, Y, and Z coordinates. RealFlow's → axis setup defines which coordinate will serve as the scene's height axis.
- A grey circle indicates that a parameter can be animated. Please go to → “Quick Start Workflows - Animation” for a complete guide.
- A right-click on a parameter set's headline (e.g. “Display”) opens a help text.
- The F1 key opens a parameter's individual help text.
Right-Click Menu
When you right-click on a parameter name a small context menu appears:
Edit curve (animatable parameters only)
When chosen RealFlow creates an empty animation curve for each parameter value, and opens the → “Curve Editor (CE)”. There it is possible to add and edit animation keys. Please also take a look at → “Quick Start Workflows - Animation” for a detailed description.
Add key (animatable parameters only)
A click on this menu entry adds a key for each parameter value at the current time. Please also take a look at → “Quick Start Workflows - Animation” for a detailed description.
Lock parameter
This option prevents a parameter from unwanted changes. Locked parameters carry an appropriate icon.
Help
Here you can get individual help for a parameter. Alternatively, press the F1 key.
