Panel:: Sidebar ‣ Node

Node¶

Name: A unique node identifier inside this node tree.

Label: Nodes can be given a title by modifying the text field.

Color¶

By default, the node’s background color is defined by the user theme. This color can be overridden by selecting a custom color in this panel. Custom node colors can be used to provide a visual cue to help distinguish some nodes from others. The button to the right of the checkbox lets you save colors as presets for reusing later on (much like a palette).

Node Color Specials

This menu contains Operators for working with nodes with custom colors.

Copy Color: Copies the color of the Active node and applies it to all selected nodes.

Properties¶

The properties that are shown depend on the type of node selected, e.g. a Mix node has different properties than a Mask node.
