The name of the new parameter, both in the VEX function declaration, the definition of any OP type that uses the VOPNET, and the VOP tile’s output. If a parameter by this name already exists, this operator will reference it and will disable most of of its own fields, such as the Parameter Type and Parameter Label.

The name must not be a reserved keyword.

The optional prefix to prepend to the parameter name. The prefix changes the final name of the new parameter, both in the VEX function declaration, the definition of any OP type that uses the VOPNET, and the VOP tile’s output.

The optional postfix to append to the parameter name. The postfix changes the final name of the new parameter, both in the VEX function declaration, the definition of any OP type that uses the VOPNET, and the VOP tile’s output.

A human-readable label for this parameter. Appears in the parent node’s parameters and the tooltip when the user hovers over the output on the VOP tile.

Whether this parameter is a color ramp (vector) or spline (float).

The color space to use. This only applies to color ramps.

The default method for interpolating between ramp keys, for example “Linear” or “Constant”. The user can change the interpolation method in the ramp interface, but this sets the default.

When several Parameter VOPs have the same Parameter Name, only one of the nodes is used to control the attributes of the parameter. Houdini decides which node to use for this by searching all the nodes according to the user defined order, then traversing inside subnets. If none of them have this parameter turned on, the first one found is used to set the parameter attributes. If one or more do have this option turned on, the first one with this option is used, even if another node (with this option turned off) is found first.

Control whether to show the ramp controls by default on the owner node’s parameter interface.
