Map Attribute

Map Attribute reads a graph attribute and passes its value on as a map, without remapping it. Use it where another map node needs an attribute as one of its inputs, such as the A or B of a Map If or the Mask of a Map Blend. For an attribute remapped through ranges and a ramp, use a Map in Map mode instead. Mapping covers the idea.

It has no inputs, and one output that goes into another map node or is picked by a parameter's map button (Pick from network…).

Settings

Attribute is the graph attribute to read, u by default. The menu lists the float and integer attributes the tree carries, including ones a Wrangle wrote further up; the common ones are listed on the Wrangle page.

Read From is the level the value is read at: Self is the element being built, Parent its parent, and so on up to Parent+4. The same attribute can hold a different value at each level, so if a map behaves oddly after an edit around it, check Read From first.

Status

Map Attribute is experimental.
