The Common Controls
Filter nodes share a number of identical controls in the Inspector. This section describes
controls that are common among Filter nodes.
Inspector
Settings Tab
The Settings tab in the Inspector can be found on every tool in the Filter category. The Settings
controls are even found on third-party filter-type plug-in tools. The controls are consistent and
work the same way for each tool, although some tools do include one or two individual options,
which are also covered here.
Blend
The Blend control is used to blend between the tool’s original image input and the tool’s final
modified output image. When the blend value is 0.0, the outgoing image is identical to the
incoming image. Normally, this causes the tool to skip processing entirely, copying the input
straight to the output.
Process When Blend Is 0.0
The tool is processed even when the input value is zero. This can be useful if processing of this
node is scripted to trigger another task, but the value of the node is set to 0.0.
