CSS Function ​

What It Does ​

Creates CSS function syntax by wrapping a value in one of the standard CSS functions (like var(), calc(), rgb(), etc.). This node formats the input value correctly according to CSS syntax rules.

Inputs ​

NameDescriptionTypeRequired
functionNameThe CSS function to useTextYes
valueThe content to place inside the functionTextYes

Outputs ​

NameDescriptionType
valueThe complete CSS function with the valueText

How to Use It ​

  1. Drag the CSS Function node into your graph.
  2. Select a function from the "functionName" dropdown (e.g., "var()").
  3. Set the "value" you want inside the function (e.g., "--primary-color").
  4. Run the graph—with the example values, your output will be "var(--primary-color)".

Tips ​

  • The function list includes all standard CSS functions from the MDN documentation.
  • For functions that take multiple parameters, include them all in the value input with proper formatting.
  • Remember to follow each function's syntax requirements for proper CSS output.
