Why is Slide value in property node is variant type?

[HaD]

When im using more specific type, and choose Slide, the Value is variant. i can understand that its because it doesnt know if its DBL or I16 representation for example.

So, is there any way to specify the represntation without using variant to data conversion?

Hi HaD,

if you use "to more specific class", use a strict ref. With a strict ref you'll get the real type.

Also, I believe slides can have more than one pointer, in which case your input would need to be a cluster of values. Hence variant is often seen as the input could any number of possibilities!
