Target - connect a shape to measure from.

Offset - add/subtract a value to the output(s).

Example usage:

  1. Create two

  2. Create a Distance.

  3. Connect basicShape1 > distance.target.

  4. Connect distance.id > basicShape2.rotation.

  5. Move Basic Shape 1

The distance between the shapes drives the Basic Shape 2's rotation.
