Derive Node Reference

Length Node

Description

The Length node treats pixels as Vector4 data, each channel representing a vector component, and calculates their lengths. This node offers a way to extract height data from RGBA textures, but has no use apart from that, since Derive’s output is static and does not perform runtime calculations.
