Hello. I’m trying to use NormalFromHeightmap node to replace Blender’s bump node with it  
 ![image](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/6/e/9/6e90a50a60152c77a92c07df657af2589ff4a755.png)  
But I can’t connect generated normal map to Height Map pin, because it’s not texture parameter. Can I somehow bypass this limitation?
