How to use Boolean Math node in Oraphim

Type ID: motion.logic.boolean
Category: Utility

What this node does

The Boolean Math 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 4 sockets and 3 properties for this node. Its main registered inputs are A, B; its main outputs are Result, Value. The tables below are generated from the runtime registry rather than a handwritten approximation.

Inputs

Socket Key Type
A in_a Bool
B in_b Bool

Outputs

Socket Key Type
Result out_result Bool
Value out_value Float

Controls

Control Key Type Group Registry default
Operation operation String Logic And
A a Bool Defaults 0.0
B b Bool Defaults 0.0

How to use it

  1. Add Boolean Math from node search. Use motion.logic.boolean when you need the exact registry entry.
  2. Connect a compatible Bool source to A. Add the other inputs only when the operation needs them.
  3. Start with the registry defaults and adjust Operation, A, B first so you can see the node's effect in isolation.
  4. Route Result (Bool) 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 Boolean Math. Feed a compatible source into A. Change Operation away from its registry default and compare the result. Connect Result 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.
