Type ID: geometry.curve_handle_type_selection
Category: Utility
What this node does
The Handle Type Selection node is registered in Oraphim's Utility category and performs the graph operation represented by its sockets and controls below.
The current Oraphim runtime registers 1 sockets and 1 properties for this node. Its main registered inputs are no fixed inputs; its main outputs are Selection. The tables below are generated from the runtime registry rather than a handwritten approximation.
Inputs
This node has no fixed input sockets in the current runtime registry.
Outputs
| Socket | Key | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Selection | selection |
Bool |
Controls
| Control | Key | Type | Group | Registry default |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Handle Type | handleType |
String |
Node | 0.0 |
How to use it
- Add Handle Type Selection from node search. Use
geometry.curve_handle_type_selectionwhen you need the exact registry entry. - Place the node as a source/context operation; it has no fixed input socket in the current registry.
- Start with the registry defaults and adjust Handle Type first so you can see the node's effect in isolation.
- Route Selection (
Bool) into a compatible downstream node, viewer, or output path. - Preview a representative frame, change one input/control at a time, and save/reopen reusable graphs to verify persistence.
Practical example
Create a small test graph with Handle Type Selection. Change Handle Type away from its registry default and compare the result. Connect Selection to a compatible downstream stage so the result is visible. Keeping this test graph small makes socket-type, context, and parameter mistakes easier to diagnose before the node is used in a production graph.
Troubleshooting
- If a connection is rejected, compare the exact socket data types in the tables above; Oraphim graph connections are typed.
- If the result looks unchanged, confirm this node is on the active path to the viewer/output and that the expected graph/resource is selected.
- If a control is unavailable, check required inputs and whether the property belongs to an internal or mode-dependent group.
- If a saved graph behaves differently later, reopen it and verify node identity, connections, and edited property values before rendering.
