Get Input Color
Get Input Color
Returns the value of an input parameter as a color. The color channels are assumed to be a floating point, including the alpha channel. Use this node with the Float4 substance data type.
Note
You can use this node with all substance data types: Float1 through Float4 and Integer1 through Integer4. However, if the input parameter has fewer dimensions, the extra dimensions are assigned a value of 0.
The node does not perform any range conversion. For example, if an Integer4 substance data type has a value of \(`255`, `0`, `0`, `255`\), this is returned as \(`255.0`, `0.0`, `0.0`, `255.0`\), which is outside the normal 0.0 to 1.0 range of a color value.
