Some semi-transparent presets, such as those with water or glass, may require one or more media inputs to be added manually. This is done so that the Substance node and attached maps can correctly create a plausible effect. When you load a Substance Texture preset that requires a media input, an empty input node is attached to the Substance node in the schematic.

To specify media as the input source:

1. Select the Input node in the schematic.
2. Select the appropriate media in the Media list.
3. Click Apply.
4. Double-click the Input node in the schematic to access the Input menu.

Destination Resolution boxSelect the square destination resolution of the input media.

Filter boxSelect the type of filtering to apply to the input media.

Repeat Mode boxSelect how the input media is repeated (after Transform settings are applied).

Position X fieldDisplays the X position of the input media before it is fed to the Substance node.

Position Y fieldDisplays the Y position of the input media before it is fed to the Substance node.

Rotation Z fieldDisplays the Z rotation of the input media before it is fed to the Substance node.

Scale X fieldDisplays the X scale of the input media before it is fed to the Substance node.

Scale Y fieldDisplays the Y scale of the input media before it is fed to the Substance node.

Proportional buttonEnable to affect the X and Y scale fields proportionally.
