ComfyUI Node: SWIZZLE (JOV) 😵

SWIZZLE (JOV) 😵:

The SWIZZLE (JOV) 😵 node is designed to manipulate and transform vector data by reordering or swapping its components. This node is particularly useful for AI artists who need to perform complex vector operations without delving into the underlying mathematical details. By allowing you to specify how each component of the input vectors should be rearranged or swapped, the SWIZZLE (JOV) 😵 node provides a flexible and powerful tool for creative vector manipulation. Whether you are working with 2D, 3D, or 4D vectors, this node helps streamline the process, making it easier to achieve the desired transformations and effects in your projects.

SWIZZLE (JOV) 😵 Input Parameters:

IN_A

This parameter represents the first input vector, which is a 4D vector by default. It is used as one of the primary sources for the swizzle operation. The default value is [(0,0,0,0)].

IN_B

This parameter represents the second input vector, which is also a 4D vector by default. It serves as the other primary source for the swizzle operation. The default value is [(0,0,0,0)].

SWAP_X

This parameter specifies how the X component of the output vector should be derived. It can take values from the EnumSwizzle enumeration, such as A_X, A_Y, A_Z, A_W, B_X, B_Y, B_Z, and B_W. The default value is A_X.

X

This parameter provides a float value that can be used to override the X component of the output vector. The default value is 0.

SWAP_Y

This parameter specifies how the Y component of the output vector should be derived. It can take values from the EnumSwizzle enumeration, similar to SWAP_X. The default value is A_Y.

Y

This parameter provides a float value that can be used to override the Y component of the output vector. The default value is 0.

SWAP_Z

This parameter specifies how the Z component of the output vector should be derived. It can take values from the EnumSwizzle enumeration, similar to SWAP_X. The default value is A_W.

Z

This parameter provides a float value that can be used to override the Z component of the output vector. The default value is 0.

SWAP_W

This parameter specifies how the W component of the output vector should be derived. It can take values from the EnumSwizzle enumeration, similar to SWAP_X. The default value is A_Z.

W

This parameter provides a float value that can be used to override the W component of the output vector. The default value is 0.

SWIZZLE (JOV) 😵 Output Parameters:

results

The output of the SWIZZLE (JOV) 😵 node is a list of transformed vectors. Each vector in the list is the result of applying the specified swizzle operations to the corresponding input vectors. The output vectors can be used in subsequent nodes or processes to achieve the desired visual or computational effects.

SWIZZLE (JOV) 😵 Usage Tips:

• Experiment with different SWAP_X, SWAP_Y, SWAP_Z, and SWAP_W settings to achieve unique vector transformations.
• Use the X, Y, Z, and W parameters to override specific components of the output vector for more precise control.
• Combine this node with other vector manipulation nodes to create complex and dynamic effects in your projects.

SWIZZLE (JOV) 😵 Common Errors and Solutions:

Invalid EnumSwizzle value

• Explanation: This error occurs when an invalid value is provided for the SWAP_X, SWAP_Y, SWAP_Z, or SWAP_W parameters.
• Solution: Ensure that the values for these parameters are valid EnumSwizzle values such as A_X, A_Y, A_Z, A_W, B_X, B_Y, B_Z, or B_W.

Mismatched vector lengths

• Explanation: This error occurs when the input vectors IN_A and IN_B have different lengths.
• Solution: Ensure that both input vectors are of the same length, preferably 4D vectors as expected by the node.

Missing input vectors

• Explanation: This error occurs when one or both of the input vectors IN_A or IN_B are not provided.
• Solution: Make sure to provide valid 4D vectors for both IN_A and IN_B parameters.
