Used to retrieve a Pointer to the Colors of the pin, which can be used to write large number of Colors more efficiently. Each Color consists of 4 doubles, one for each of Red, Green, Blue and Alpha. Note though, that when writing Colors to the Pointer the pins SliceCount has to be taken care of manually.

Used to write a Color to the pin at the specified slice.

Used to set the SubType of a Color pin, which is a more detailed specification of the Color, used by the GUI to guide the user to insert correct Colors. Note though that this does not prevent a user from setting "wrong" Colors on a pin. Ultimately each node is responsible for dealing with all possible inputs correctly. Should only be called once immediately after the pin has been created in IPlugin.SetPluginHost.

Specifies whether the pin is connected in the patch or not.

The pins name.

The order property helps the node to arrange its pins visually. The higher the order, the more right the pin appears on the node.

Gets the plugin host which created this plugin io.

The pins SliceCount specifies the number of Values (2D Vector, String...) it carries. This is like the length of an array or list.

Returns a String of the pins concatenated Values. Typcally used internally only to save a pins state to disk.
