How to use Convert Transform Space node in Oraphim

Type ID: motion.transform.space_convert
Category: Transform

What this node does

The Convert Transform Space node is registered in Oraphim's Transform category and performs the graph operation represented by its sockets and controls below.

The current Oraphim runtime registers 5 sockets and 1 properties for this node. Its main registered inputs are Transform, Parent Transform; its main outputs are Transform, Parent Inverse, Valid. The tables below are generated from the runtime registry rather than a handwritten approximation.

Inputs

Socket	Key	Type
Transform	in_matrix	Matrix
Parent Transform	in_parent	Matrix

Outputs

Socket	Key	Type
Transform	out_matrix	Matrix
Parent Inverse	out_parent_inverse	Matrix
Valid	out_valid	Bool

Controls

Control	Key	Type	Group	Registry default
Conversion	mode	String	Space	Local To World

How to use it

1. Add Convert Transform Space from node search. Use motion.transform.space_convert when you need the exact registry entry.
2. Connect a compatible Matrix source to Transform. Add the other inputs only when the operation needs them.
3. Start with the registry defaults and adjust Conversion first so you can see the node's effect in isolation.
4. Route Transform (Matrix) 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 Convert Transform Space. Feed a compatible source into Transform. Change Conversion away from its registry default and compare the result. Connect Transform 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.
