Node Interface Explanation

ComfyUI Node Interface

A typical node usually consists of the following parts:

  • Node name information (can be modified through the context menu)
  • Input: Supports input types distinguished by different colors, and only matching types can be connected
  • Output: Outputs different types of information after node processing (different colors represent different outputs)
  • Parameter: The parameter setting part

Node Menu Options

Right-click on any node option to bring up the node’s related menu.

Node Menu

In the node menu, there are mainly two categories:

  • Appearance options: Such as setting or modifying the node name, size, color, shape, collapse, etc.
  • Functional options: Such as converting the node’s parameter part into an input / editing state of the components inside the node

By dragging on the input/output points of the corresponding node, you can bring up the menu for that node, showing other nodes that can be connected to this connection point.
