Binding Variables

Individual properties can be bound to a variable for advanced scenarios such as centralization and automation.

Binding Properties

Click the 🔹 dot menu next to the property you want to bind. Select Bind to and then choose either an existing variable or create a new variable.

Use the dot menu to bind to a variable.

Once a property is bound, it will no longer be a directly editable control.

Bound Property view.

You can double-click a bound property to edit the value of the variable. This is the same as editing the value in the Vars tab of the Data Editor.

You may need to press Refresh (F5) to update a node after manually editing a variable value. Gaea will not automatically update the node for execution safety reasons when a bound variable is modified.
