Star

Generates a star with alternating inner and outer vertices. Control the number of points and how deep the inner vertices reach toward the center.

Inputs

PortTypeDefaultRangeDescription
SizeScalar1.00–1Overall scale
PointsScalar53–12Number of star points
DepthScalar0.50–1How far inner vertices reach inward: 0 is flat (polygon), 1 reaches the center

Outputs

PortTypeDescription
FrameFrameClosed star path

Controls

Resolution: Low, Medium, High, or Very High.

Ideas

  • Animate Depth with an oscillator for pulsing star points that breathe in and out.
  • Modulate Points for an evolving shape that shifts between different star forms.
  • Combine with Colorize and a Phasor-driven hue for a spinning, color-cycling star.
  • Polygon: star without the inward depth
  • Rose: smooth petal curves instead of sharp points
  • Duplicator: repeat the star with rotation for complex patterns
