How to use Grid Divergence node in Oraphim

Type ID: geometry.grid_divergence
Category: Transform

What this node does

Processes grid, volume, or SDF data with the Grid Divergence operation.

The current Oraphim runtime registers 2 sockets and 0 properties for this node. Its main registered inputs are Grid; its main outputs are Divergence. The tables below are generated from the runtime registry rather than a handwritten approximation.

Inputs

Socket	Key	Type
Grid	grid	Geometry3D

Outputs

Socket	Key	Type
Divergence	out_geometry	Geometry3D

Controls

This node has no registered editable properties; use its sockets and graph context.

How to use it

1. Add Grid Divergence from node search. Use geometry.grid_divergence when you need the exact registry entry.
2. Connect a compatible Geometry3D source to Grid. Add the other inputs only when the operation needs them.
3. Start with the registry defaults and adjust socket/context behavior first so you can see the node's effect in isolation.
4. Route Divergence (Geometry3D) into a compatible downstream node, viewer, or output path.
5. 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 Grid Divergence. Feed a compatible source into Grid. Connect Divergence 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.
