view_mulView

view_mulView is the "look at a bunch of values at once" node: it shows up to ten values on a single node face and passes them out its ten outputs, output_1 through output_10. Instead of scattering ten display nodes across the graph and squinting at each one, you get one place where a whole set of numbers or strings is visible side by side.

The view_* family in this pack splits the work of a good debug node into pieces - inspect one value, inspect a tensor's shape, inspect a mask. view_mulView is the "I want to watch several things change together" member. It's the right call when you're tuning a multi-parameter workflow and you want seed, CFG, denoise, and a couple of lengths all visible without dragging ten windows around. Watch them together and you can actually see which knob moves which result.

How it works

The schema declares no fixed inputs - ten outputs, no input sockets - because it's a Primitive-style node. That sounds backwards until you remember how ComfyUI's core Primitive behaves: you connect one of its outputs somewhere and the matching input appears on the node. Same deal here. Wire output_1 to a steps input, and a corresponding input shows up where you set the value. The value gets displayed on the node, flows out the output, and all ten slots work the same way. What you see on the face is what's leaving the node.

The inputs and outputs that matter

• output_1 … output_10 - ten * outputs. Connect each one to create its matching input, set the value there, and it flows out and displays.

You don't have to use all ten. Two is fine. The unused slots just sit there doing nothing.

How to install it

It's part of ComfyUI-Apt_Preset. Install via ComfyUI Manager (search "ComfyUI-Apt_Preset") or:

cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes
git clone https://github.com/cardenluo/ComfyUI-Apt_Preset

then run install.bat (Windows) or pip install -r requirements.txt, and restart ComfyUI. No model downloads.

Common issues & troubleshooting

Because the inputs are created dynamically by connecting outputs, the most common confusion is "where do I type the value?" - the field appears on the node once you connect the output to something. If a slot stays empty, you haven't connected its output yet. And since the pack is a translated, niche project, be aware the node's runtime behavior is exactly as terse as its name; if something looks off, re-read the schema on this page before assuming a bug.

The standing pack-level caveat: niche pack, Bilibili-based author. The recurring community report is an IMPORT FAILED for the whole pack when dependencies are skipped - run install.bat, restart ComfyUI, and confirm the PreView nodes show up before you start wiring.
