I'm trying to create a filter similar to Photoshop's "Emboss". I need a way to take a numerical value from a slider control and output the inverse value. In other words, if the offset-X value for one Offset component is set to 0.02, the offset-X value of another Offset component -- through some kind of component-chain trickery I haven't figured out yet -- automatically becomes -0.02. Does that make sense? And if so, is it doable?

Bonus points for Angle Control compatibility.

Thanks!

It may work with the angle control by using the rotate component and using the rotate on that for control....

It is simply a controller remapping situation: Use negative value(s) for the other input.

Oh, boy. I left email notification unchecked, and presumed that no one replied. So, yeah, thanks for your replies, and sorry for taking so long to follow up.

Remappers, huh? All this time, I had no idea that those little numbers lozenges were customizable. Derp.

CFandM, thanks for the filters. I'll take a look this evening.
