PatterNodes 3.1.1 macOS
File size: 17 MB
PatterNodes is a tool for creating graphical patterns, animations, gradients or illustrations based on repetitions. This is done by defining a sequence of steps, a recipe or sorts, that describes the pattern.
Each pattern element or operation is represented by a little panel called a node, and the nodes are then linked by connections drawn between them. As the nodes can be freely combined and connected this gives you a very flexible and powerful interface.
The resulting pattern tile is always shown in the bottom preview view, repeated and updating in real time with any changes, giving you instant feedback of what the end result will be. To make pattern creation easier PatterNodes also includes a lot of nodes that automatically perform common tedious tasks like repeating elements at the tile edges to make the pattern seamless, or randomizing different aspects (like color, position, rotation, etc.) of the elements in a pattern to give it a little more life. Finally, when you're done you can simply copy the pattern tile into whatever illustration or graphics application you use, or export it either as vector graphics or a bitmap image file. Animations can be exported as GIF, QuickTime MOV or numbered PNG or JPG files
Release Notes
Version 3.1.1 changes
New features and improvements
Better color model support. Color parameters can now be set and stored in different colorspaces/models (like Grayscale and CMYK) instead of always being converted to RGB and losing precision. This will also mean some exported colors will look different compared to older versions, so there is an option added in the settings to keep the old conversion to get the same output.
Made it easier to find the Value Time function node by also placing it in a new Animation category in the add node menu.
You can now use middle-mouse button for panning in the preview just like in the node editor view.
Updated manual.
Added link to user Discord channel in the Help menu.
Bug fixes
Some fixes and improvements to the Color node numeric color mode based on the new color model features.
Fixed dragging a selection box outside of the node editor not scrolling it correctly.
Fixed the cursor not resetting properly after middle-mouse button panning of the node editor view.
Fixed issue where right-clicking a second time after dragging out a new connection would leave a broken connection with a loose end.
Fixed issue where it was possible to duplicate the Artboart node, causing issues since there should only be one and it can't be deleted.
Stability improvement and better error messages if something goes wrong during file exports.
Stability improvement and better error messages when trying to save files that have invalid connections or nodes.
