CollectImages
Forms a series of image layers by repeatedly evaluating the input with different Contexts. Useful for networks that need to dynamically build an unknown number of image layers.
user
Container for user-defined plugs. Nodes should never make their own plugs here, so users are free to do as they wish.
out
The output image generated by this node.
enabled
Turns the node on and off.
in
The image which will be evaluated for each layer.
rootLayers
A list of values for the layerVariable
, defining the layers to be collected.
layerVariable
This Context Variable will be set with the current layer name when evaluating the in plug. This allows you to vary the upstream processing for each new layer.
addLayerPrefix
When on, the output channel names are automatically prefixed with the name of the layer being collected. Should be turned off when the input channel names already contain the layer name.
mergeMetadata
Controls how the output metadata is generated from the collected
images. By default, the metadata from the first image alone
is passed through. When mergeMetadata
is on, the metadata from
all collected images is merged, with the last image winning
in the case of multiple image specifying the same piece of metadata.
