ComfyUI Node: ImpactMinMax

ImpactMinMax:

The ImpactMinMax node is designed to compare two values and return either the maximum or minimum of the two, based on a specified mode. This node is particularly useful in scenarios where you need to dynamically determine the higher or lower value between two inputs, which can be essential in various decision-making processes within your AI art projects. By leveraging this node, you can automate the selection of optimal values, ensuring that your workflows are both efficient and effective.

ImpactMinMax Input Parameters:

mode

The mode parameter is a boolean that determines whether the node will return the maximum or minimum value between the two inputs. When set to True, the node returns the maximum value (label_on: "max"), and when set to False, it returns the minimum value (label_off: "min"). The default value is True, meaning the node will return the maximum value by default. This parameter is crucial as it directly influences the outcome of the comparison.

a

The a parameter represents the first value to be compared. This can be of any type that supports comparison operations. The value of a is one of the two inputs that the node will evaluate to determine the maximum or minimum value based on the mode parameter.

b

The b parameter represents the second value to be compared. Similar to a, this can be of any type that supports comparison operations. The value of b is the other input that the node will evaluate to determine the maximum or minimum value based on the mode parameter.

ImpactMinMax Output Parameters:

INT

The output parameter is an integer that represents either the maximum or minimum value between the two inputs a and b, depending on the mode parameter. This output is essential as it provides the result of the comparison, which can then be used in subsequent nodes or processes within your AI art workflow.

ImpactMinMax Usage Tips:

• To ensure you get the desired result, always double-check the mode parameter before executing the node. Setting it to True will return the maximum value, while setting it to False will return the minimum value.
• Use the ImpactMinMax node in conjunction with other logic nodes to create more complex decision-making workflows. For example, you can use it to dynamically adjust parameters based on certain conditions.

ImpactMinMax Common Errors and Solutions:

TypeError: '>' not supported between instances of 'type1' and 'type2'

• Explanation: This error occurs when the values of a and b are of types that cannot be compared using the greater-than or less-than operators.
• Solution: Ensure that both a and b are of comparable types. For instance, both should be integers, floats, or any other types that support comparison operations.

ValueError: Invalid input type for parameter 'mode'

• Explanation: This error occurs when the mode parameter is not set to a boolean value.
• Solution: Make sure that the mode parameter is either True or False. This can be done by explicitly setting the parameter in the node configuration.

MissingParameterError: Parameter 'a' or 'b' not provided

• Explanation: This error occurs when one or both of the required input parameters a and b are not provided.
• Solution: Ensure that both a and b parameters are supplied with valid values before executing the node.
