Distance to object in node editor

#1

Hi lightwavers. I have a simple question. How i can make a gradient with input parameter distance to object in node editor? Similar to gradient layer type in standart color slot for example. Thanks in advance:)

I see two ways:

  • get item world position
  • subtract spot world position or another item world position
  • connect to gradient input
  1. Layers > Scalar Layer and pick up Layer Type Gradient…
