These settings and controls will not necessarily be present in every node but are common to many of them. The behaviour is the same for every node which features a given control unless otherwise noted.<br /><br />'''Enable (check box)''' – Controls whether the currently selected node is enabled. Disabling a node will usually “bypass” it, allowing data to pass through unaffected so that the scene will still render properly, but without the effect of that node.<br /><br />'''Name (text field)''' - Sets the display name for that node. Currently node names must be unique. Creating duplicate names will cause unpredictable behaviour.<br /><br />'''Internal network display (button)''' – Click to display the node network inside the currently selected node. The internal network will be displayed in the last focused network view.<br /><br />

<br />'''Preview (button)''' - Click to open a preview for the node in a new window.<br /><br />

<br />'''Blend by shader (check box)''' – Controls whether the blending shader is enabled. A blend shader essentially masks the output of the current node. [explain this better]<br /><br />'''Blend shader name (text field)''' – Here you can enter the full name of the shader you want to use as a blend shader for the current node.<br /><br />'''Blend shader list (button)''' – Click this button to display a list of shaders available for assignment to the blend function of the current node.<br /><br />

<br />'''Fit blendshader to this (check box)''' – Need more info.<br /><br />'''Invert blendshader (check box)''' – Inverts the input of the blend shader so that it masks areas opposite to its normal affect.
