Add Settings to Node

Setting Requirements

Properties within your nodes, which you would like to define as setting, must have a public getter and setter. Only the following setting types are currently supported.

• int
• float
• bool
• SKColor
• enum

Value Setting

You can define value settings by adding the NodeSettingAttribute to the corresponding property within the node. Lets say, we would like to create a gain signal node, which amplifies the input signal with a configurable gain and pushes it to a node output.

[Node(Name = "Gain")]
public class GainNode : NodeBase
{
    private float _in;
    private float _gain = 1.0f;

    [NodeInput]
    public float In
    {
        get => _in;
        set
        {
            _in = value;
            OnPropertyChanged(nameof(Out));
        }
    }

    [NodeSetting]
    public float Gain
    {
        get => _gain;
        set
        {
            _gain = value;
            OnPropertyChanged(nameof(Out));
        }
    }

    [NodeOutput] public float Out => Gain * In;

    public GainNode(IExtensionApi api)
        : base(api)
    {
    }
}

Info

Remember to initialize node setting properties with a reasonable default value.

Enumeration Setting

If your node setting property is an enumeration type, Audectra will automatically create a list of available options from the enumeration from which the user can choose one.
