Field Operators

Float or vector fields, which provide values for the requested coordinates.

They can be used to control the behavior of other OPs, such as rotating by different amounts in different positions, or pulling color values from a texture.

Operators

atmosphereField atmosphereField Field that simulates a sun and sky.
axisDistanceField axisDistanceField A float field that provides the distance from a specific point along a single axis.
bandField bandField Field that applies values based on a band/slice of an axis.
blackbodyColorField blackbodyColorField Field that produces colors using a model of blackbody radiation from physics.
cellTileField cellTileField A value field that provides an approximation of repeating cellular (voronoi) noise.
chopField Field that provides values from a CHOP.
colorRampField colorRampField A vector field that maps an input field to values from a range of colors.
colorSwitchField Switches or fades between a list of colors based on an index field.
constantColorField constantColorField A vector field that evaluates to a constant color value.
constantField constantField A float or vector field that evaluates to a constant value.
constantSwitchField Switches or blends between constant values based on an index field.
