Purpose

Connects exactly one of multiple input images to exactly one (of potentially multiple) output connectors. It combines the functionality and can (or should) be used in place of the ML modules Switch and Switch1toN which, under certaint circumstances, use up valuable ML image cache unnecessarily.

Usage

Select the number of inputs and output and connect different images to the inputs. Observe the active output when switching through the input images.

Details

Using -1 for either active input or output index results in the invalidation of all outputs.
