Ports
Inputs
2
What the node takes in, from wires or typed values.
Y
Number
The y coordinate of the point
X
Number
The x coordinate of the point
Outputs
1
What the node gives out, to wire into other nodes.
Radian
Number
The angle in radians (in [-pi, pi] ) between the positive x-axis and the ray from (0,0) to the point (x,y)
Creation method#
There are two options for creating an ArcTangent2 node.#
- The first way to create an ArcTangent2 node using the search list, which is opened by double left-clicking in the workspace. You can write the name of the node you need, or words associated with this node.
- atan2 , arcTan2
- The second way is to select an ArcTangent2 node from the menu that opens from the top left.
- Menu > Math > ArcTangent2
Steps#
- Create an ArcTangent2 node.
- Connect the y coordinate of the point to the first port.
- Connect the x coordinate of the point to the second port.
