    Some of our graphs open up and prompt the following message :

    "This graph uses experimental nodes"

    Any idea what this means?

    Good Day.

    Yes. This message means that there is at least one instance of a node from the Experimental category of your libraries in your graph.

    If you open your Preferences menu, and on the first tab hit the Advanced Preferences button, you will open the Adv. Pref menu, and in the upper left there is a checkbox for "Use Experimental Nodes"

    If this is checked, you will notice when you highlight your CORE library in the library selection pallete (lower left corner) that a category Experimental is now visible. These are some nodes that have yet to be fully developed (although they are functional) and may have unknown issues. It is also possible that in future releases, they may be removed from the library.

    Because of this graphs utilizing them show a message to notify the user that their graph has some experimental components.

    I can't seem to locate the Advanced Preference menu in LAE 3.x. Do you know where this is in this version?

    In 3.x the "Use experimental" checkbox is located on the General tab of the Preferences menu.

    Found it. Thanks.

    Now, how do I get to the following area in LAE 3.x " .. you will notice when you highlight your CORE library in the library selection pallete (lower left corner) that a category Experimental is now visible".

    Can i see which node is the experimental one?

    In 3.x, you should notice that when you uncheck the "use experimental", that the number of available nodes in your libraries decreases. It's automatic.

    For example. If you start a new graph with just the "basic" library, and toggle the experimentals off, you should notice that CatPump and CatVer2 are no longer available.
