                  Right-click  on the connection
                  between  two nodes  to  access  a

                      Find Nodes: Opens a  search
                  box to locate a specific node.

                  Understanding a Node

                  Each node in Blender has four main parts:
                      Title: The name of the node, shown at the top.

                      Inputs: Found on the left side, these receive data to control the
                  node’s function.

                      Outputs: Found on the right side, these send processed data
                  to other nodes.

                      Properties: Adjustable settings in the Node Properties panel,
                      controlling how the node behaves.



                            SHADING


                  Shading in Blender refers to the process of creating and applying materials to 3D objects, giving
                  them  realistic or stylised appearances.  Blender’s  shading system  is based  on a node-based
