Input Node

Provide static and dynamic data to your model using various input types for full parametric control.

Input nodes let you bring external data into your parametric model whether itโ€™s text, images, vector paths, 3D objects, or numeric values.

CONST Nodes:

  • Cnst: Provides a fixed, unchanging value/number to the graph.

Input Nodes:

  • Range Input: Allows selection of a numeric value within a specified range. You can assign measurement units directly to Range Input nodes, allowing your inputs to represent real-world values instead of raw numbers. Unit settings also extend to the configurator, ensuring consistency between your workspace and end-user inputs.

  • Text Input: Accepts a single line of text.

  • Text Area Input: Accepts multi-line text input.

  • Select: Provides a dropdown menu to choose one option.

  • Select with Thumbnail improves option selection by displaying visual previews alongside configurable choices. Instead of choosing from text-only dropdowns, users can browse and select options through thumbnail images, making configurators more intuitive, visually engaging, and easier to navigate.

  • Boolean: Accepts true/false values.

  • Color Picker: Lets you choose colors to drive parameters or geometry appearance.

  • Curve Editor: Allows custom curve creation for parametric control.

  • Rich Text Editor: Accepts formatted text input, including styling and links.

  • Font: Create 3D-ready text shapes by converting written characters into editable geometry.

  • Image Input: Import an image to use its pixels for masking, referencing, tracing, or driving geometry.

  • Object 3D: Load external 3D models into your scene to reuse, edit, transform, or combine with other geometry.

  • Vector Graphics Input: Bring in SVG or vector paths to convert 2D graphics into precise curves and shapes for modeling.

  • UV Mapping: Control how a 2D texture wraps onto a 3D surface so patterns align cleanly and without distortion.

  • Texture: Apply images or patterns onto surfaces to add color, detail, material feel, or structural variation.

  • Graph Mapper: Remap, reshape, and control values through customizable curves to create smooth transitions and dynamic parametric behavior.

Math

  • Math Expression: Allows you to enter a custom mathematical formula or expression to compute values dynamically inside your graph.
