Conventions

Comments:

use > < or ^ to point a comment to the part of a patch it describes
start all sentences with a capital letter and end them with a dot
when referring to a specific node start its name with a capital letter, like "Quad".
don't write "Here we/you have to set this&that." but say "Here this&that is set."
write X, Y, Z always in captial letters when referring to axes of a coordinate system.
write: Rightclick, Leftclick, Doubleclick

Patching:

https://github.com/vvvv/ParasiticDesign
follow: Node&Pin Naming Conventions
all non default pin values should be set via an IOBox
try to avoid Map nodes after Linear/RandomSpread (as they can already map to a value range)
make mostly straight connections
make links that are a feedback (and go upwards) curved
in Renderers set DepthBuffer (24bit) and Antialiasing (4) for Windowed and Fullscreen

General remarks for svvvvitchers:

processing is all pixelbased (howbout OPENGL mode?)
lefthanded (vvvv) vs. righthanded (opengl) coordinate system

2d angles are different in processing to vvvv
note different Y/Z axis direction

beware of different colormodes in processing. vvvv is always 0-1
bug: keyboard commands work only when renderer is active window
