Overview
Adds geometry fields or a scalar broadcast value.
Geometry Beta field arithmetic. Adds the connected fields; a connected scalar broadcast or local Value supplies the scalar operand.

Inputs
| Input | Type | Required | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A Field | GeometryField | Required | — | See the overview for the node's documented behavior. |
| B Field | GeometryField | Optional | — | See the overview for the node's documented behavior. |
| Broadcast Scalar | Scalar | Optional | — | See the overview for the node's documented behavior. |
Properties
| Property | Type | Default | Animatable | Range / options | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Value | Scalar | 0 | Yes | Hard -10..10 · UI range: soft · Step .01 | Animatable control; changing it over time varies the node response. |
Outputs
| Output | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| field | GeometryField | The production node output described by the overview. |
Usage
In practice
- Use Field Add to combine two masks or add a scalar value across a geometry field.
- A connected Broadcast Scalar takes precedence over the local Value.
Notes / limitations
- Field arithmetic is part of the Geometry Beta toolset and remains lazy until consumed by a geometry stage.
