ComfyUI Node: Multiline Text 🕒🅡🅣🅝

Multiline Text 🕒🅡🅣🅝:

The MultilineText node is designed to facilitate the creation and formatting of multiline text, making it a versatile tool for managing text data in a structured manner. This node is particularly beneficial for users who need to handle text that spans multiple lines, such as poetry, code snippets, or formatted documents. By providing options to strip whitespace and remove empty lines, it ensures that the text is clean and well-organized, enhancing readability and presentation. The node's primary function is to process input text according to specified formatting preferences, allowing for efficient text manipulation and output generation. This makes it an essential component for tasks that require precise text formatting and organization.

Multiline Text 🕒🅡🅣🅝 Input Parameters:

text

This parameter accepts a string input that can span multiple lines. It is designed to handle multiline text, allowing you to input text with line breaks using the \n character. The default value is "Line 1\nLine 2\nLine 3", and it includes a tooltip to guide you in entering text with new lines. This parameter is crucial for defining the content that you want to format and process.

strip_whitespace

This boolean parameter determines whether leading and trailing whitespace should be removed from each line of the input text. By default, it is set to True, which means that any unnecessary spaces at the beginning or end of each line will be stripped away. This helps in maintaining a clean and tidy text format, especially when dealing with user-generated content that might have inconsistent spacing.

remove_empty_lines

This boolean parameter controls whether empty lines or lines that contain only whitespace should be removed from the input text. The default value is False, meaning that all lines, regardless of their content, will be retained. Enabling this option can be useful for condensing text and removing unwanted blank lines, resulting in a more compact and organized output.

Multiline Text 🕒🅡🅣🅝 Output Parameters:

STRING

The output of the MultilineText node is a single string that represents the processed text. This output reflects the input text after it has been formatted according to the specified parameters, such as stripping whitespace and removing empty lines. The resulting string is ready for further use or display, providing a clean and well-structured version of the original input.

Multiline Text 🕒🅡🅣🅝 Usage Tips:

• Use the strip_whitespace option to ensure that your text is free from unnecessary spaces, which can improve the overall appearance and readability of the text.
• Enable the remove_empty_lines option when you want to condense your text by eliminating any blank lines, making it more concise and easier to manage.

Multiline Text 🕒🅡🅣🅝 Common Errors and Solutions:

Text input is not formatted correctly

• Explanation: This error may occur if the text input does not use the correct newline character (\n) for line breaks.
• Solution: Ensure that you use \n to separate lines in your input text to achieve the desired multiline format.

Unexpected whitespace in output

• Explanation: If the strip_whitespace option is not enabled, the output may contain unwanted spaces at the beginning or end of lines.
• Solution: Enable the strip_whitespace option to automatically remove leading and trailing spaces from each line in the text.

Empty lines are not removed

• Explanation: This issue arises when the remove_empty_lines option is not activated, resulting in the retention of blank lines in the output.
• Solution: Activate the remove_empty_lines option to ensure that any empty or whitespace-only lines are excluded from the final output.
