🐯 YFG 5 Image Switcher

The five-input version of the YFG switcher, and honestly the size where this family starts to make sense. At three inputs the built-in Image Switch is fine. At five you're probably comparing a row of seeds or a grid of sampler settings, and "which one is selected right now?" becomes a real question - which is exactly what this node answers with its routing diagram.

Same DNA as the 3-input sibling in the same pack (gonzalu/ComfyUI_YFG_Comical): selected_image dropdown with "Image 1" through "Image 5", a preview_type toggle between showing the selected image and showing a connection diagram, and every input optional so an unconnected slot doesn't error out.

What you actually set

• selected_image - the only input that does anything meaningful. Pick the slot.
• preview_type - Input Image previews the chosen image; Connection Diagram draws a rectangle-per-input graphic with the active path highlighted. If you're running a five-way sweep, the diagram view is the one that keeps you sane.
• image_label, font_size, font_color, font_file - cosmetic label on the preview.

Outputs

Both are IMAGE: Selected Image (the one to wire onward) and Connection Diagram (the routing graphic, usually left unwired). If a slot is empty, the node handles it gracefully instead of killing the run - the pack's whole reason for existing on these switchers was avoiding "ganged switcher confusion" in complex workflows.

Installing

This is a pack install, not a node install. ComfyUI Manager → search "YFG Comical" → install, or:

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/gonzalu/ComfyUI_YFG_Comical

Restart after. The switcher itself needs only PIL; the pack's other nodes want cv2/matplotlib (not in pyproject.toml), so if the whole pack errors on import, pip install opencv-python matplotlib and restart.

Verdict

Five inputs is where a "which one is live" indicator starts paying for itself, and the optional-inputs behavior makes these safe to drop into shared workflows. That said, if you're only ever switching between two or three images, the built-in switch plus a memory of which seed you typed will do the same job with less pack baggage. The diagram is the differentiator - use it once and you'll miss it on stock ComfyUI.
