Swing
A node of the Action graph, in the Generators group.
Swings to and fro about an axis, like a pendulum or a sign.
Takes: axis (text), angle (channels), times (channels), frames (channels) · Gives: channels
Settings
| Setting | What it does | Range | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| Axis | The axis it turns about. | X, Y (up), Z | z |
| Angle | How far it swings each way, in degrees. | -360 to 360 | 15 |
| Times | How many times it goes and comes back over its frames. | 0 to 64 | 1 |
| Frames | How many frames it lasts; 0 is as long as the action. | 0 to 1024 | 0 |
Every setting is also an input: wire a value into it to change it over time. On the command line: pxr graph set game.pixor --which action --node swing --set KEY=VALUE.
What it wires to
Its axis input takes a text, which these give: Words.
What it gives, channels, goes into: Apply to, Instances, Output, Blend, Lag, Limit, Maths, Merge, Rename, Repeat, Reverse, Select, and 27 more.
In the app, drag a wire from one of its dots: every dot the wire fits is ringed.
How it fits with the rest: the Action graph in the manual.
