Clamp
The Bounder. Constrains float values to a specific range. Any value below the minimum is set to the minimum, and any value above the maximum is set to the maximum.
Ports
| Port | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Input | Float | The field to clamp. |
| Output | Float | The clamped field. |
Details
Parameters
- Min: The lowest allowed value.
- Max: The highest allowed value.
Potential Use Cases
- Hard Limits: Ensure that a noise field or distance field never exceeds a certain value (e.g., preventing "overflow" when adding multiple noise layers).
- Mask Preparation: Clamp a noise field to
0.0 - 0.5before thresholding to create very "choppy" or "dense" patterns. - Normalization: After adding two noise fields (which might result in values from 0.0 to 2.0), use Clamp with a Max of 1.0 to ensure the output remains within a standard range.
