advPlot range

advPlot range is the first of tinyterra's plot-syntax generators, and it exists for one reason: writing a 10-value numeric axis by hand in the advanced xyPlot node is soul-destroying. You tell it which node and widget to target, how to step through a range, and it emits the exact <axis>:<label> / [node:widget='value'] syntax - ready to paste or wire straight into your x/y/z plot.

The advanced xyPlot's syntax is powerful but verbose; every cell is a line of [12:cfg='7.5']. When you want to sweep CFG from 4 to 8, or a LoRA weight from 0.5 to 0.9, you do not want to type each line. This node generates them for you, and because it outputs a plain STRING, you can even chain generators into the main plot node over a wire.

How it works

Pick the target with node and widget (dropdowns that populate once the node sees your graph - they read "Connect to xyPlot for options" until you connect it into the flow), then choose a range_mode:

• step_int / step_float - step from start by step for num_steps values. So start 0.5, step 0.1, num_steps 5 → 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9.
• num_steps_int / num_steps_float - go from start to stop in num_steps evenly spaced values (include_stop decides whether stop itself is included).

label_type controls the axis label like the other generators: Values (plain), Title and Values, or ID, Title and Values - matching the v_label / tv_label / idtv_label syntax of the main node.

Output is plot_text, a STRING containing the generated <1:v_label> + [nodeid:widget='value'] lines, one axis worth per run. It's marked as an output node, so it displays the generated text in its own UI too - handy for verifying before you commit.

Installing it

Part of tinyterraNodes:

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/TinyTerra/ComfyUI_tinyterraNodes.git

or ComfyUI Manager → tinyterraNodes. No extra dependencies.

Gotchas

Two things to watch. First, the node and widget dropdowns only populate after the node is connected into a graph where ComfyUI can resolve IDs - if they stay stuck on "Connect to xyPlot for options," you're looking at an unconnected/unsaved graph, not a bug. Second, floats round to 2 decimals and ints round to whole numbers, so a step_float sweep can collide into repeated values if your step is smaller than your rounding - 0.005 steps just produce duplicates. And remember each range node emits one axis; a full grid needs one per axis, or one run of the merge node to combine them.
