Map Range Node.

This node allows to convert (map) an input value range into a destination range. By default, values outside the specified input range will be proportionally mapped as well. This node is similar to Map Value node but provides a more intuitive way to specify the desired output range.

Inputs

Value
Standard value input.
From Min/Max
Start/End of the input value range.
To Min/Max
Start/End of the destination range.

Properties

Clamp
Clamps values to Min/Max of the destination range.

Outputs

Value
Standard value output.

Usage

One important use case is to easily map the Z-depth channel from its original range to a more usable range (i.e.: 0.0 - 1.0) for use as a matte for colorization or filtering operations.
