This page provides information about the V-Ray Graph Mapper component in V-Ray for Grasshopper. 


Overview

Section
Column
width60%

The V-Ray Graph component is a curve editor that remaps the numeric input values to an output, based on an advanced curve function. Unlike the standard Grasshopper Graph Mapper, this curve editor allows the use of multiple bezier point controls with custom tangents. It can be combined with the V-Ray Timeline component for a powerful animation workflow.

The V-Ray Graph component serves to overcome the limitation of the native Grasshopper components allowing for better animation controls.
