Parameters

ParameterTypeDefaultWhat it does
screenChoicegreenThe screen colour to key: green or blue. greenblue
thresholdFloat0.1How different from the screen colour a pixel may be and still count as screen.
passesInt24Smoothing passes over the screen estimate. More is flatter and slower.
disabledBoolfalseBypass: the node passes its first input through untouched (D in the graph). The knobs keep their values for when it comes back.
labelTextA note shown under the node in the graph — what this node is FOR. Never affects the render or the cache.
hide_inputBoolfalseDraw the node without its input wire — a tidy graph for a node whose source is obvious (a Dot, a viewer tap).
