Hello Guys,
I am trying to use a Wedge node attribute in Tops to push the values inside a switch node in sops. But instead of using an Integer, I want the Attribute string type in Tops to control the values in the switch node.
For example in my tops I have a Wedge node with a attribute name: balls , the type is a String and the string values are: 1. Red, 2. Blue, 3. Purple.
How do I then connect this to a switch node and allow it to connect to the right integer value on the switch now.
I have attached a quick test scene demonstration what i am trying to do.
Convert Integer values to string in switch node.

you can do it for example with python expression like this
which would switch to the input whose name is the same as balls attribute value
colors = [input.name() for input in hou.pwd().inputs()] color = pdg.workItem().attribValue("balls") return colors.index(color)
