finding chs

[Follyx]

How could I search for a specific chs i.e: `chs("../../ptgroup")`without hovering with the mouse over the available parameter....

thx in advance

To see all available parameters for a node you can click on the little gearbox icon in the parameter interface and click "Edit parameter interface".

This should give a better organized view of all the parameters/channels that the node has.

yep, this is true but if I dont know in wich node the desired parameter exists?

`chs("../../ptgroup")`

means it is on the node 2 levels above the node that contain parameter with this expression

 

so imagine the node with this expression is node1 

and if node1 has path, /obj/geo1/subnet1/subnet2/node1

then relative path  ./ would refer to node itself, so node1

../ would refer to node one level higher, so subnet2

../../ refers to node 2 levels higher, so subnet1

 

therefore chs("../../ptgroup") refers to parameter called ptgroup on the subnet1 node

the full path to that parameter would be /obj/geo1/subnet1/ptgroup

 

the easier way to get to that parm would be RMB on your parameter with expression and from menu choose More/View Dependencies

then change View mode to References and find your referenced parm, if you select it, you will see in bottom of that window Expression and a little arrow, which will take you to that node directly

SOLVED

 

 

Thank you to both especiall anim. Didnt knowed that the dependencies also work with expressions and not just nodes. Exact what I needed.

 

Good Times
