External Characteristic vs Text node

170 Views

Hi Experts,

When we are creating a hierarchy we have option to have external characteristics and also the text nodes. Both will be yellow in colour and are called nonpostable nodes. I have designed my material hierarchy with textnode->textnode->material.I am struggling to understand in what way the design textnode->characteristic node->material differs. I understand that text node just is used for display purpose in the reporting. What is the functionality of charactersitic node and are not they same as text nodes in my hierarchy that i explained. Somebody please help me understand this.

thanks,

Pavan.
