Context Menu

It’s easy to adjust the properties of any node directly.

Right-click a node (not a connection) to open its Context Menu. From there, you can tweak all of its properties. Here are a few common controls that a node's Context menu may include:

• Sliders for numeric properties Vertical sliders for values like radius, x, y, scale, decay, etc Click the number to type an exact value, use the mouse wheel or trackpad to fine‑tune. Note: Slider ranges are fixed, but the value box accepts any number — no hard limits.

• Toggle switches for boolean properties Simple on/off switches for properties like front of Trail effect or transmitRot of Point Click to toggle them instantly.

• Text menu for enumerated properties Dropdown-style lists for discrete choices, like blendMode of Blend node. The current value shows a checkmark; click another option to switch.

• Audio frequency analyser showing the currently selected frequency range of an Audio node.

• MIDI CC sliders that display the current values of the detected MIDI CC, with the ability to select the listening CC number of a MIDI CC node.

To quickly explore the context menu of any node without adding it manually, open the Node Menus example project. Then, right-click on any node you want to inspect!

Keep in mind that some properties are intentionally hidden from a node’s context menu for clarity — for example, a Source node’s input and zindex properties. These can be set by connecting other nodes to them.

You might now be asking, “How do I switch a connection to a different property?” — that’s what we’ll cover in the next chapter.
