Derive Node Reference

Dot Node

Description

The Dot node treats pixels as Vector4 data, each channel representing a vector component, and performs a dot product or scalar product on it’s inputs. This node can be useful to generate certain height data, but has no use apart from that, since Derive’s output is static and does not perform runtime calculations.
