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
| Port | Type | Default | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Size | Scalar | 0.5 | 0–1 | Overall scale |
| Points | Scalar | 5 | 3–12 | Number of star points |
| Depth | Scalar | 0.5 | 0–1 | How far inner vertices reach inward: 0 keeps them on the outer circle (a flat, polygon-like outline), 1 pulls them in to about a fifth of the outer radius |
Outputs
| Port | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Frame | Frame | Closed 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.
