How to use Curve Map node in Oraphim

Type ID: motion.value.curve
Category: Utility

What this node does

The Curve Map 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 5 sockets and 10 properties for this node. Its main registered inputs are Value; its main outputs are Value, Factor, Slope. The tables below are generated from the runtime registry rather than a handwritten approximation.

Inputs

Socket Key Type
Value in_value Float

Outputs

Socket Key Type
Value out_value Float
Factor out_factor Float
Slope out_slope Float
Valid out_valid Bool

Controls

Control Key Type Group Registry default
Value value Float Defaults 0.0
Input Minimum inputMin Float Input 0.0
Input Maximum inputMax Float Input 1.0
Output Minimum outputMin Float Output 0.0

How to use it

  1. Add Curve Map from node search. Use motion.value.curve when you need the exact registry entry.
  2. Connect a compatible Float source to Value. Add the other inputs only when the operation needs them.
  3. Start with the registry defaults and adjust Value, Input Minimum, Input Maximum first so you can see the node's effect in isolation.
  4. Route Value (Float) 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 Curve Map. Feed a compatible source into Value. Change Value away from its registry default and compare the result. Connect Value 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.
