Description

Fills the interior of input Splines with solid white. The exterior is filled with solid black.

Open splines are closed with a straight line from start to end. Intersections where the spline crosses itself are resolved by inverting the interior and exterior sides of the lines at those junctions.

Caution:

It is not recommended to use this node on splines that are out of the [0 ,1] tile. The filling process is unreliable in that case.

Input connectors

Spline Coords Color
The coordinates of the input splines’ points encoded in the RGBA channels of a color image:
    R - X position
    G - Y position
    B - Height
    A - Packed data:
        - Sign: Spline is closed (negative) or open (positive);
        - Absolute value: Thickness + 1.

Spline Data Color
Additional data of the input splines encoded in the RGBA channels of a color image.
    R - Tangents X
    G - Tangents Y
    B - Unused
    A - Unused

Spline Amount Integer
The number of input splines.

Output connectors

Output Grayscale
The result image of filling the input Splines with flat white against a flat black background.
