Instance
Instance
Use Instance to execute another saved graph as a nested reusable node. It is ideal for modular authoring where shared logic is maintained centrally.
Availability
This node is available in the free feature set.
Common uses
- Use instances to build reusable graph libraries and layered workflows.
- Expose only the parameters needed for parent-level control.
Input ports
-
None
-
Accepts linked graph inputs plus optional exposed parameter inputs.
Output ports
out
Port names can depend on the graph or node configuration.
- Outputs the linked graph outputs mapped by port IDs.
Parameters
This node has no shared processing parameters.
Behavior
- Texture engine instance execution requires the project list to be configured first.
- Inputs and outputs are rebuilt from linked graph contracts.
Common mistakes
- Broken project references prevent the instance from rendering.
- Changing linked graph ports requires parent graph wiring updates.
