What this node does
Changes spline type on incoming geometry and passes the edited result downstream.
The current Oraphim runtime registers 3 sockets and 2 properties for this node. Its main registered inputs are Curve, Selection; its main outputs are Curve. The tables below are generated from the runtime registry rather than a handwritten approximation.
Inputs
| Socket | Key | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Curve | curve |
Geometry3D |
| Selection | selection |
Bool |
Outputs
| Socket | Key | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Curve | out_geometry |
Geometry3D |
Controls
| Control | Key | Type | Group | Registry default |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Selection | selection |
Bool |
Inputs | 1.0 |
| Type | splineType |
String |
Node | 0.0 |
How to use it
- Add Set Spline Type from node search. Use
geometry.set_spline_typewhen you need the exact registry entry. - Connect a compatible
Geometry3Dsource to Curve. Add the other inputs only when the operation needs them. - Start with the registry defaults and adjust Selection, Type first so you can see the node's effect in isolation.
- Route Curve (
Geometry3D) 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 Set Spline Type. Feed a compatible source into Curve. Change Selection away from its registry default and compare the result. Connect Curve 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.
