Hi!

I was looking for getting a float output from a RGB. On the tool nodes there is only "float to RGB" but not "RGB to Float".

Node like "Tool_ColorCorrection" require a float input to drive some parameters. I tried to use an RGB as input but it's not considered by the Tool_ColorCorrection

I attached a screen grab of the network to better explain.

Any suggestion?


Thanks

G.

The problem is that this input pin is not texturable. You can't link texture nodes (nodes that have a texture output) to this input. It only supports const floats.

is there any way to convert color to float? Sometimes I really need to manipulate float data. :?: :?: :?:
