Hiho,
i have a problem with the interface function and still don´t get the exposed parameters copied to the other container (source to dest).
Please check the attached scene and maybe it´s something simple i missed to activate
- interfacing.vza
- simple scene with 2 containers (source & dest)

Thanks for a hint

hi tom
the problem seems to be, that you have only inputs...not outpts exposed! to connect to inputs is the same as for any other node....drag the desired input to over the node where you want get the value from....and wait a moment...the the property window will change to the inputs and you can connect it!
see attached video...but remove the .vza at the end

Hi tom!
Input properties of destination containers keep their values if you update their content.
This is necessary because in most cases you have multiple copies of an Interface Container with modified input properties. And you don't won't to reset theses modifications if you have to update the content of these containers.
I understand that in some cases it might be necessary - but this feature is not available.
Cheers

hi!
thanks for the example movie chris & karol for the explanation.
in my case i look for a quick way to get a lot of existing parameters to another new node with the same naming convention.
they are not in containers .
background:
i have the v3 shader & plugin presets and have to redo them all in v4, cause our code was changed in some ways.
ok i´m now nearly finished but it would be a killer feature to copy multiple parameters with one click
creative regards,
aTom
