变换节点Transform Node
学习目标LEARNING OBJECTIVES
学完你能用变换节点(Transform Node)平移、缩放、旋转元素,并懂得为什么变换要交给独立节点。
概念说明CONCEPTS
变换节点(Transform Node)是对图像做平移、缩放、旋转的节点——插在元素与它的 Merge 之间,改变流经它的一切内容。
- 三个核心参数:
Center(X/Y 平移)、Size(缩放)、Angle(旋转),都在检查器(Inspector)里调。 - 串在管道中间:加在目标元素之后、Merge 之前,变换只影响它上游的内容。
- 坐标是归一化的:画面中心是
0.5 / 0.5,X 往大走右移、Y 往大走上移。 - 独立节点更可读:Merge 自带的变换控件也能挪位置,但变换交给独立节点,节点图一眼能看懂。
操作步骤STEPS
- 选中要变换的元素节点(如一个 Text+)
- 点工具栏上的
Transform图标,节点自动插到选中元素之后
- 选中新的 Transform 节点,在检查器里改
Center的 X/Y 值移动元素
- 需要时继续调
Size缩放、Angle旋转 - 选中
MediaOut按2载入查看器,确认变换结果
练习PRACTICE
- 给一个文字标题加 Transform 节点,把
Center Y从0.5调到0.6,观察文字上移。 - 对同一元素分别试
Size和Angle,各调一个夸张值,感受三个参数的分工。
常见问题FAQ
用 Merge 的 Center 和加 Transform 节点有什么区别?
效果相似,但独立 Transform 节点让节点图可读、好维护;做动画时尤其推荐(见 运动路径)。
Center 的值 0.5 是什么意思?
归一化坐标:画面中心是 0.5 / 0.5,X 往大走右移、Y 往大走上移,1.0 大致到画面边缘。
调乱了怎么恢复原位?
把 Center 改回 0.5 / 0.5、Size 改回 1、Angle 改回 0,即回到初始状态。

After this card you can move, scale, and rotate elements with a Transform node — and explain why transforms deserve their own node.
Concepts概念说明
A Transform node pans, scales, and rotates an image — insert it between an element and its Merge, and it changes everything flowing through it.
- Three key parameters:
Center(X/Y position),Size(scale), andAngle(rotation), all adjusted in the Inspector. - Sits mid-pipe: add it after the element, before the Merge; the transform only touches what flows into it.
- Normalized coordinates: the frame center is
0.5 / 0.5— higher X moves right, higher Y moves up. - A separate node stays readable: Merge nodes have their own transform controls, but a dedicated Transform node keeps the node tree legible at a glance.
Steps操作步骤
- Select the element you want to transform (e.g. a Text+)
- Click the
Transformicon on the toolbar — the node inserts itself after your selection
- Select the new Transform node and change the
CenterX/Y values in the Inspector to move it
- Adjust
SizeandAngleif you need scaling or rotation - Select

Practice练习
- Add a Transform node to a text title and change
Center Yfrom0.5to0.6— watch the text rise. - On the same element, try an exaggerated
Size, then an exaggeratedAngle, to feel each parameter's job.
FAQ常见问题
Merge's Center vs. a Transform node — what's the difference?
Similar results, but a dedicated Transform node keeps the node tree readable and maintainable — the recommended choice for animation (see Motion Path).
What does a Center value of 0.5 mean?
Normalized coordinates: 0.5 / 0.5 is the frame center; higher X moves right, higher Y moves up, and 1.0 is roughly the frame edge.
How do I reset after messing up the values?
Set Center back to 0.5 / 0.5, Size to 1, and Angle to 0 — that's the neutral state.
