Preview Curve

What It Does

The PreviewCurve node visualizes a curve or function as a graph. It helps you see the shape and behavior of mathematical curves for animation or interpolation.

Inputs

Name	Description	Type	Required
Value	The curve to visualize	Curve	Yes

Outputs

No outputs	This node is for preview purposes only	-

PreviewCurve Example

How to Use It

1. Drag the PreviewCurve node into your graph.

2. Connect a curve value (like a Bezier curve or other function curve) to the "Value" input.

3. The node will display a graphical representation of the curve's shape.

4. Use the visualization to understand the curve's progression and behavior.

Tips

• Use this to verify the shape of easing curves for animations.

• Check transition curves to ensure they have the intended acceleration and deceleration.
