In TouchDesigner, you build networks by connecting operators.

Left-to-Right Flow

  • Most OPs have inputs (left) and outputs (right).
  • Connect them by clicking the output and dragging to an input.

Multi-Input OPs

  • Some nodes like Composite TOP or Math CHOP can accept many inputs at once.
  • Drag multiple outputs into their left side.

In/Out OPs

  • Use In and Out operators inside a Component (like a Base COMP) to define inputs/outputs on the Component node itself.
