Chapter 11 Color FX 239
Note: When you position the pointer over any node’s input, a small tooltip appears to
show you its name.
If you want to eliminate the effect a node is having, you can toggle its Bypass button,
at the top of the Parameters tab.
To disconnect a node from the one above it:
m Drag a noodle from the input of the node you want to disconnect to any empty area of
the Node View.
When you’re working on large node trees, it pays to keep them organized so that their
operation is clear.
To rearrange nodes in the Node View, do one of the following:
m Drag a single node in any direction.
m Drag a selection box over a group of nodes, then drag any of the selected nodes into
any direction to move them all together.
Adjusting Node Parameters
The operation of most nodes can be customized using parameters that vary from node
to node, depending on a node’s function. All node parameters appear in the
Parameters tab, to the right of the Color FX room.
To show any node’s parameters in the Parameters tab:
m Click once on the node you want to edit.
