ComfyUI Node: Image & Text Switch

Image & Text Switch:

The ImgTextSwitch node is designed to dynamically select and output either text or image data based on a specified input parameter. This node is particularly useful for AI artists who need to switch between multiple text and image inputs within their workflows. By providing a flexible mechanism to choose between different inputs, the ImgTextSwitch node helps streamline the creative process, allowing for more efficient and organized management of content. The primary function of this node is to return the selected text or image based on the active input parameter, ensuring that the desired content is easily accessible and ready for further processing or display.

Image & Text Switch Input Parameters:

active_input

This parameter determines which set of text and image inputs will be selected and output by the node. It accepts an integer value with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 3, with a default value of 1. The active_input parameter is crucial as it dictates the node's behavior, allowing you to switch between different content sets based on your needs.

Text_1

This optional parameter allows you to input the first set of multiline text. It supports multiline text input and requires forced input, meaning you must provide a value if this parameter is used. This text will be selected if active_input is set to 1.

Image_1

This optional parameter allows you to input the first image. It accepts image data and has a default value of None. This image will be selected if active_input is set to 1.

Text_2

This optional parameter allows you to input the second set of multiline text. It supports multiline text input and requires forced input, meaning you must provide a value if this parameter is used. This text will be selected if active_input is set to 2.

Image_2

This optional parameter allows you to input the second image. It accepts image data and has a default value of None. This image will be selected if active_input is set to 2.

Text_3

This optional parameter allows you to input the third set of multiline text. It supports multiline text input and requires forced input, meaning you must provide a value if this parameter is used. This text will be selected if active_input is set to 3.

Image_3

This optional parameter allows you to input the third image. It accepts image data and has a default value of None. This image will be selected if active_input is set to 3.

Image & Text Switch Output Parameters:

Multiline Text

This output parameter returns the selected multiline text based on the active_input parameter. It provides the text content that corresponds to the chosen input set, allowing you to use this text in subsequent nodes or processes.

Image

This output parameter returns the selected image based on the active_input parameter. It provides the image content that corresponds to the chosen input set, allowing you to use this image in subsequent nodes or processes.

Image & Text Switch Usage Tips:

• Ensure that the active_input parameter is set correctly to select the desired text or image input.
• Provide values for the optional text and image parameters only if you intend to use them; otherwise, they can be left as None.
• Use this node to manage and switch between different content sets efficiently, especially when working on complex projects with multiple text and image inputs.

Image & Text Switch Common Errors and Solutions:

Missing text and image input, check selection

• Explanation: This error occurs when the selected input set (based on active_input) does not have any text or image data provided.
• Solution: Ensure that the text and image parameters corresponding to the active_input value are not empty or None. Provide the necessary content for the selected input set.
