| Target Index Settings | |
| Target Index | The type of value used for this probe’ index source; either a Constant value or fetched from anAttribute
|
| Target Constant | Constant index value; or constant offset depending on the selected Mode. |
| Target Attribute | Per-point attribute value for the index/offset. |
Mode
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| Target | Use the target index value as a raw index to connect to. |
| One-way Offset | Use the target index value as an offset to the currently probed point’ index. |
| Two-way Offset | Use the target index value as an offset to the currently probed point’ index; and creates a second connection but this time using the target index value multiplied by -1. |
Index Safety
The index safety property controls how invalid/out of bounds input values are handled.
| Safety method | |
| Ignore | Invalid indices will be ignored and won’t be processed further. |
| Tile | Index is tiled (wrapped around) the context’ valid min/max range. |
| Clamp | Index is clamped between the context’ valid min/max range. |
| Yoyo | Index bounces back and forth between the context’ valid min/max range. |
