Object ID/Material ID (Sliders)
Use these sliders to select which ID is used to create a mask from the object or material
channels of an image. Use the Sample button in the same way as the Color Picker: to grab IDs
from the image displayed in the view. The image or sequence must have been rendered from a
3D software package with those channels included.
Hide Incoming Connections
Enabling this checkbox can hide connection lines from incoming nodes, making a node tree
appear cleaner and easier to read. When enabled, empty fields for each input on a node are
displayed in the Inspector. Dragging a connected node from the node tree into the field hides
that incoming connection line as long as the node is not selected in the node tree. When the
node is selected in the node tree, the line reappears.
Comments
The Comments field is used to add notes to a tool. Click in the empty field and type the text.
When a note is added to a tool, a small red square appears in the lower-left corner of the node
when the full tile is displayed, or a small text bubble icon appears on the right when nodes are
collapsed. To see the note in the Node Editor, hold the mouse pointer over the node to display
the tooltip.
Scripts
Three Scripting fields are available on every tool in Fusion from the Settings tab. They each
contain edit boxes used to add scripts that process when the tool is rendering. For more details
on scripting nodes, please consult the Fusion scripting documentation.
