Solid Color

Solid Color

Use Solid Color to provide a constant fill for backgrounds, tint passes, or blend backplates. It is useful as a neutral baseline when testing downstream color and contrast operations.

Availability

This node is available in the free feature set.

Common uses

  • Start graphs with one or more generator nodes, then route them into filters or mixing nodes.
  • Combine with Levels, Curves, or Blend to shape the final look quickly.

Input ports

  • None

  • Usually no required image input; parameters define the output pattern.

Output ports

  • out

  • Primary output is an image signal used by downstream nodes.

Parameters

This node has no shared processing parameters.

Behavior

  • Generator nodes define the initial signal that propagates through the graph.
  • Most generator outputs can be treated as grayscale unless the node is color-focused.

Common mistakes

  • Large or high-contrast sources can amplify artifacts in downstream blur or warp chains.
  • Keep source scale consistent before combining multiple generators.
