Continuous Modifier
Updated: 4 Dec 2023
Generates a continually increasing modifier value.
Continuous Modifier
Method #
This modifier continually increments or decrements the targeted parameter value at a constant rate.
The output is a numeric value that can be further processed with other modifiers, or directly connected to a parameter in another node, using the operation method selected.
Parameters
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
Parameter Details Current Value
Shows the current value of the effect. Cannot be directly changed.
Speed
The speed at which the modifier increases (per second)
Scale
Adjust the scale/range of the modifier.
Modifier Operation
The operation to be performed on the targeted parameter.
- Add : Adds to the parameter value.
- Subtract : Subtracts from the parameter value.
- Multiply : Multiplies the parameter value.
- Replace : Replaces the parameter value.
Time Mode
How the modifier updates in relation to the time code.
- Use Deltas (Continuous/Looping) : The time runs based on the frame delta, loops when the play head loops, and the Playback Rate parameter may be animated.
- Locked To Timecode : The modifier values are locked to the time code and the same time will always yield the same numerical value.
The properties control the time at which the node is active. See Timeline for editing time segments.
Parameter Details Duration
Control the duration of the node’s time segment.
- Composition Duration : Use the length of the composition for the node’s time segment duration.
- Custom : Set a custom duration for the node’s time segment.
Node Time
The custom start and end time for the node.
Duration (Timecode)
The length of the node’s time segment (in time).
Duration (Frames)
The length of the node’s time segment (in frames).
Time Segment Enabled
Set whether the node’s time segment is enabled or not in the Timeline.
