Node

Name

A unique node identifier inside this node tree.

Label

Nodes can be given a title by modifying the text field.

Warning Propagation

Controls which warnings in this node will be propagated to the parent node group or modifier. This only exists for Geometry Nodes.

Color

By default, the node’s background color is defined by the user theme. This color can be overridden by selecting a custom color in this panel. Custom node colors can be used to provide a visual cue to help distinguish some nodes from others. The button to the right of the checkbox lets you save colors as presets for reusing later on (much like a palette).

Color

Color of the node background.

• Node Color Specials

  This menu contains Operators for working with nodes with custom colors.

  • Copy Color

    Copies the color of the Active node and applies it to all selected nodes.

Properties

The properties that are shown depend on the type of node selected, e.g. a Mix node has different properties than a Mask node.
