AutoSwitch¶

MacroModule¶

genre	`FlowControl`
author	`Florian Weiler`
package	`FMEstable/ReleaseMeVis`
definition	AutoSwitch.def
see also	`Switch`
keywords	`switch`, `override`, `optional`, `data`

Purpose¶

Automatically switches to the valid one of the two input images. If both are valid, the second one (inOverrideImage) is preferred. This can be useful to provide modules that require a valid image input (e.g. Arithmetic) with a default image (e.g. ConstantImage or TestPattern). As soon as the override image becomes valid, the module forwards this one instead of the default image.

Usage¶

Connect your default image to inDefaultImage, and an optional “override” image to inOverrideImage.
