Palette Get

Overview

Extracts the Nth color from a palette. Referencing colors by palette index instead of specifying them directly lets a graph update all its colors together simply by replacing the palette.

Usage tips

• Wire colors by index—for example, palette color 1 for outlines and color 2 for fills—so changes to palette_create or a shared palette propagate throughout the graph. This centralizes color management.
• Drive the index with a waveform or integer input to cycle through palette colors, creating a simulated palette-cycle animation.
• Use this when you need one color, not an operation that consumes the whole palette such as quantize or gradient_map.

Related nodes

• palette_create / common_palette_ref — source palettes
• color_rgb — supply a single color without a palette
• palette_cycle — full palette cycling
• int_input — control the index externally

Technical details

• An out-of-range index is clamped to the first or last color.
• An empty palette outputs the default color, black.
• Promote the Index parameter to an input pin 📌 to control it dynamically from another node.

Examples

• Select one specific color from the output of Palette Create.
• Control the index with an Int node or animation node to retrieve palette colors in sequence.
