The following features are built using internal nodes and an extension and are not inherent parts of the   itself.\nThe lock icon in the top-right of the box locks and unlocks text editing in the . In a locked , you cannot edit text and clicking on the body area clicks through to the network below. Annotates also have a RMB menu for quick access to many features. It is always accessible through the title bar, and accessible through the body when the  is unlocked.\nYou can size Annotates by dragging the edges and move them by dragging the title bar. In Comment mode, which has no title bar, you can drag the  by the text body. When the Enclose OPs feature is on, dragging an  will drag all enclosed nodes (including other Annotates) with it. To drag an annotate without dragging its contents, you can hold down Alt while dragging.\nAnnotates have powerful built-in Operator Viewer features, including positioning and interaction, which can be controlled using Parameters - OP Viewer Page. For basic text features see Parameters - Text Page. For deeper text editing and color features including limiting text width, wrapping, and more, see Parameters - Settings Page. \nAnnotates are layered in the network so that smaller boxes are in front of larger boxes, but you have more control with the Depth Layer parameter. Annotates are positioned behind the grid by default, but you can put them in front of the grid, or even on top of the nodes tiles. For example, put an image with transparency in the Viewer OP and turn Back Color Alpha to 0, then set Layer Zone to be Above Nodes.\nBecause the Enter shortcut and zoom-to-enter are disabled in Annotates, to get inside an , use one of the following methods: \n\nBox-pick an , then right-click on the network and select \"Jump Down\".\nFind the  via the path bar at the top of the network pane.\nBox-pick an , right-click on the \"i\" icon on the  and select Enter  from the node menu.You can switch between the three built-in  modes by using the Mode parameter of the   or the Mode menu in the right-click menu.\n\n\nBasic text features including editable/searchable parameters holding the 's text.\n\n  Titletext - Text in the title bar.\n\n\n\n  Titleheight - Height of the title bar.

Please see extensions for more information.\n\n  ext - Sequence of info for creating extensions on this component\n\n\n\n  ext0object - A number of class instances that can be attached to the component.\n\n\n    \n  ext0name - Optional name to search by, instead of the instance class name.\n\n\n\n  ext0promote - Controls whether or not the extensions are visible directly at the component level, or must be accessed through the .ext member.  Example:  n.Somefunction vs n.ext.Somefunction\n\n\n\n\n  reinitextensions - Recompile all extension objects. Normally extension objects are compiled only when they are referenced and their definitions have changed.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Common parameter page sets the component's node viewer and clone relationships.\n\n  parentshortcut - Specifies a name you can use anywhere inside the component as the path to that component. See Parent Shortcut.\n\n\n\n  opshortcut - Specifies a name you can use anywhere at all as the path to that component. See Global OP Shortcut.\n\n\n\n  iop - Sequence header for internal operators.\n\n\n\n  iop0shortcut - Specifies a name you can use anywhere inside the component as a path to \"Internal \" below. See Internal Operators.\n\n\n\n  iop0op - The path to the Internal OP inside this component. See Internal Operators.\n\n\n\n\n  opviewer - Select which operator's node viewer to use when the Node View parameter above is set to Operator .\n\n\n\n  enablecloning - Control if the OP should be actively cloneing. Turning this off causes this node to stop cloning it's ' Master'.\n\n\n\n  enablecloningpulse - Instantaneously clone the contents.\n\n\n\n  clone -  to a component used as the Master Clone.\n\n\n\n  loadondemand - Loads the component into memory only when required. Good to use for components that are not always used in the project.\n\n\n\n  enableexternaltox - When on (default), the external  file will be loaded when the  starts and the contents of the  will match that of the external . This can be turned off to avoid loading from the referenced external  on startup if desired (the contents of the  are instead loaded from the  file). Useful if you wish to have a  reference an external  but not always load from it unless you specifically push the Re-Init Network parameter button.\n\n\n\n  enableexternaltoxpulse - This button will re-load from the external  file (if present).\n\n\n\n  externaltox -  to a  file on disk which will source the component's contents upon start of a . This allows for components to contain networks that can be updated independently. If the  file can not be found, whatever the  file was saved with will be loaded.\n\n\n\n  reloadcustom - When this checkbox is enabled, the values of the component's Custom Parameters are reloaded when the .tox is reloaded. This only affects top-level parameters on the component, all parameters on nodes inside the component are always reloaded with the .tox.\n\n\n\n  reloadbuiltin - When this checkbox is enabled, the values of the component's built-in parameters are reloaded when the .tox is reloaded. This only affects top-level parameters on the component, all parameters on nodes inside the component are always reloaded with the .tox.\n\n\n\n  savebackup - When this checkbox is enabled, a backup copy of the component specified by the External  parameter is saved in the  file.  This backup copy will be used if the External  can not be found. This may happen if the  was renamed, deleted, or the  file is running on another computer that is missing component media.\n\n\n\n  subcompname - When loading from an External  file, this option allows you to reach into the  and pull out a  and make that the top-level , ignoring everything else in the file (except for the contents of that ). For example if a  file named project1 contains project1/geo1, putting geo1 as the Sub- to Load, will result in geo1 being loaded in place of the current . If this parameter is blank, it just loads the  file normally using the top level  in the file.\n\n\n\n  relpath -  - Set whether the child file paths within this  are relative to the  itself or the , or inherit from parent.\n\n inherit - Inherit setting from parent. project - The path, when specified as a relative path, will be relative to the  file. externaltox - The path, when specified as a relative path, will be relative to the  file. When no external  file is specified, or when Enable External  is not toggled on, this doesn't have any impact.\n\n\n\nExtra Information for the   can be accessed via an Info CHOP.\n\n\n\n - Number of children in this component.\n - Number of times the operator has cooked since the process started. - Duration of the last cook in milliseconds. - Frame number when this operator was last cooked relative to the component timeline. - Frame number when this operator was last cooked relative to the absolute time. - Time in milliseconds at which the operator started cooking in the frame it was cooked. - Time in milliseconds at which the operator finished cooking in the frame it was cooked. - 1 if operator was cooked this frame. - Number of warnings in this operator if any. - Number of errors in this operator if any.\n\nTouchDesigner Build: Latest\\nwikieditorwikieditor2023.112802022.24140before 2022.24140\nCOMPs\n• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • \n\nA pane type where networks of operators can be created and edited.\n\n\n\nAnnotates are displayed in the Network Editor as colored rectangles containing user-authored text and graphics. It is based on the Annotate COMP and allows you to document your networks with useful information like comments and node grouping.\n\n\n\nAn Operator Family that contains its own Network. There are sixteen 3D Object Component and ten 2D Panel Component types. See also Network Path.\n\n\n\nA floating dialog, pane type, or dialog in a Network Editor that displays one operator's parameters.\n\n\n\nAnnotates are displayed in the Network Editor as colored rectangles containing user-authored text and graphics. It is based on the Annotate COMP and allows you to document your networks with useful information like comments and node grouping.\n\n\n\nThe viewer of a node can be (1) the interior of a node (the Node Viewer), (2) a floating window (RMB->View... on node), or (3) a Pane that graphically shows the results of an operator.\n\n\n\nAny of the procedural data operators. OPs do all the work in TouchDesigner. They \"cook\" and output data to other OPs, which ultimately result in new images, data and audio being generated. See Node.\n\n\n\nAn Operator Family which operate on Channels (a sequence of numbers (Samples)) which are used for animation, audio, mathematics, simulation, logic, UI construction, and data streamed from/to devices and protocols.\n\n\n\nAny component can be extended with its own Python classes which contain python functions and data.\n\n\n\nThe sub-Family of Component types that are used to define and render 3D scenes. A Geometry Component is an Object that contains the 3D shapes to render. A Camera COMP and Light COMP are other Object types. Separately, \"Objects\" also refers to Python objects.\n\n\n\nA Parent Shortcut is a parameter on a component that contains a name that you can use anywhere inside the component to refer to that component using the syntax parent.Name, for example parent.Effect.width to obtain panel width.\n\n\n\nA name for a component that is accessible from any node in a project, which can be declared in a component's Global Operator Shortcut parameter.\n\n\n\nOperator shortcuts are Python objects that return operators (or sometimes parameters). These include Parent Shortcuts for accessing a component from within that component, and Global OP Shortcuts that access a unique component from anywhere in TouchDesigner.\n\n\n\nCloning makes multiple components match the contents of a master component. A Component whose Clone parameter is set will be forced to contain the same nodes, wiring and parameters as its master component. Cloning does not create new components as does the Replicator COMP.\n\n\n\nTo \"pulse\" a parameter is to send it a signal from (1) an exported CHOP channel or (2) a python command or (3) a mouse click that causes a new action to occur immediately. A pulse via python is via the .pulse() function on a pulse-type parameter, such as Reset parameter in a Speed CHOP. A pulse from a CHOP is typically a 0 to 1 to 0 signal in an exported channel.\n\n\n\nThe location of an operator within the TouchDesigner environment, for example, /geo1/circle1, a node called circle1 in a component called geo1. The path / is called Root. This path is displayed at the top of every Pane, showing which Component's network you are currently in. To refer instead to a filesystem folder, directory, disk file or http: address, see Folder.\n\n\n\nTouchDesigner Component file, the file type used to save a Component of your TouchDesigner project.\n\n\n\nTOuch Environment file, the file type used by TouchDesigner to save your entire project.\n\n\n\nAn Operator Family that contains its own Network. There are sixteen 3D Object Component and ten 2D Panel Component types. See also Network Path.\n\n\n\nThere are 2 kinds of parenting. The \"parent component\" is the component in which a node resides. The metaphor is extended to include grand parents, grand-grand parents, etc. The root / is the ultimate parent to all nodes. See also 3D Parenting and panel Parenting.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRetrieved from \"https://docs.derivative.ca/index.php?title=Annotate_COMP&oldid=31109\"\n\t\tCategories: Pages using duplicate arguments in template callsTouch GlossaryCOMPs",

      "description": "Annotates are displayed in the  as colored rectangles containing user-authored text and graphics. It is based on the Annotate COMP and allows you to document your networks with useful information like comments and node grouping.\nThere are three built-in forms of the  :  Comments, Network Boxes, and Annotates that can be easily created:\n\nComments are simple, text-only post-it notes. They can be created via the network RMB menu or with the shortcut Shift-C\nNetwork Boxes group nodes together for labeling/dragging. They can be created via the network RMB menu or with the shortcut Shift-B\nAnnotates (Default Setup) do all of the above and incorporate a powerful node-viewing feature. They can be created via the network RMB menu, with the shortcut Shift-A, by holding Alt and left-dragging in the network, or by selecting  from the  family in the OP Create Dialog.annotateCOMP_Class\n\nContents\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\nThe default setup of  COMPs is a full-featured comment, network box, and node viewer, designed to be a flexible network organization and documentation tool. The following features are built using internal nodes and an extension and are not inherent parts of the   itself.\nThe lock icon in the top-right of the box locks and unlocks text editing in the . In a locked , you cannot edit text and clicking on the body area clicks through to the network below. Annotates also have a RMB menu for quick access to many features. It is always accessible through the title bar, and accessible through the body when the  is unlocked.\nYou can size Annotates by dragging the edges and move them by dragging the title bar. In Comment mode, which has no title bar, you can drag the  by the text body. When the Enclose OPs feature is on, dragging an  will drag all enclosed nodes (including other Annotates) with it. To drag an annotate without dragging its contents, you can hold down Alt while dragging.\nAnnotates have powerful built-in Operator Viewer features, including positioning and interaction, which can be controlled using Parameters - OP Viewer Page. For basic text features see Parameters - Text Page. For deeper text editing and color features including limiting text width, wrapping, and more, see Parameters - Settings Page. \nAnnotates are layered in the network so that smaller boxes are in front of larger boxes, but you have more control with the Depth Layer parameter. Annotates are positioned behind the grid by default, but you can put them in front of the grid, or even on top of the nodes tiles. For example, put an image with transparency in the Viewer OP and turn Back Color Alpha to 0, then set Layer Zone to be Above Nodes.\nBecause the Enter shortcut and zoom-to-enter are disabled in Annotates, to get inside an , use one of the following methods: \n\nBox-pick an , then right-click on the network and select \"Jump Down\".\nFind the  via the path bar at the top of the network pane.\nBox-pick an , right-click on the \"i\" icon on the  and select Enter  from the node menu.You can switch between the three built-in  modes by using the Mode parameter of the   or the Mode menu in the right-click menu.\n\n\nBasic text features including editable/searchable parameters holding the 's text.\n\n  Titletext - Text in the title bar.\n\n\n\n  Titleheight - Height of the title bar.
