I am making a node group,and for this node group I want to make an input connected to a value in the bokeh image node,but unfortunately the node has no inputs so I had to see another way to make an input (If you know how to do this please tell me),so what I did is adding a math node and add a driver to the input in the bokeh node with the variable the 1st input in the multiply node (math) while the 2nd input equal 1,but when I add a variable to the driver (single property variable) and select the scene and copy the RNA of the 1st value in the multiply node nodes["Math"].inputs[0].default_value it didn't work and value is not updated and it is marked in red as you see here enter image description here

so how can I get it work?

Reset to default

You should use node_tree.nodes["Math"].inputs[0].default_value

When you open Outliner and select Datablocks in the header you can see and list the data structure.

  • $\begingroup$ this works fine,but as soon as I make a group of the node tree and make the input is the variable everything stopped working,I tried to correct the RNA but it didn't work too,how can I fix that?and thanks $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Use the Outliner its all there. Its probably node_tree.nodes['Group'].node_tree.nodes['Math'].inputs[0].default_value where the 'Group' is name of your node group and 'Math' node is inside that group $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ but the math input has gone because it is now one of the inputs in the node group,I tried to take the path of the input by "node_groups["Google material design"].inputs[0].default_value" but this didn't work $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Ok give the .blend or a screenshot of nodes, Ill might be able to help better when I see the structure.. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ here is the blend file pasteall.org/blend/33366 I have replaced the the math node with a transform node so I can do a lot of inputs in one node. $\endgroup$
