VisualShaderNodeUniformRef
==========================

**Inherits:** :ref:`VisualShaderNode<class_VisualShaderNode>` **<** :ref:`Resource<class_Resource>` **<** :ref:`RefCounted<class_RefCounted>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

A reference to an existing :ref:`VisualShaderNodeUniform<class_VisualShaderNodeUniform>`.
