Order of Inputs

The Order of Inputs dialog allows you to customize the default sorting order of inputs inside a Group. Group inputs are determined by Map, Curve, and Numeric control components within the group. To open the dialog, right-click a Group and select Order of Inputs from the menu.

When the order of inputs is set to Automatic, they are sorted by control type first and then alphabetically within each type. The types are sorted as follows:

Map Controls

1. Color controls
2. Grayscale controls

Numeric Controls

3. Slider controls
4. Angle controls
5. IntSlider controls
6. Value controls
7. Checkbox controls

Curve Controls

8. Curve controls

When the order of inputs is set to Custom, you can rearrange the inputs of a single type but cannot mix inputs of different types together: for instance,it's impossible to put a Numeric control between two Map controls.

Note that the input list shows only those control components that are connected to the Group Result component, directly or indirectly.
