Okay, this is not a top-priority thing, but I'd like to see a component that allows me to switch between two inputs depending on the relation of to other Values:

Float Inputs: Source 1, Source 2, Value A, Value B
Integer Input "A<B","A==B","A>B","A<=B","A>=B","A!=B"

Output - either Source 1 or Source 2 depending on the condition.

I believe a conditional switch can be easily implemented via Blend -- you can feed the "condition" into its Opacity input. Black areas would make Blend to output the "Background" input, and the white ones the "Foreground" -- maybe this can help somehow?

Or, there is Threshold which can also be used for the same purpose, since its Threshold input can be mapped with another component.

Yes indeed that might work. I'll check it out.

Hmm - on second thought: I want to compare two channels. With the opacity I just check one channel. Okay, I can somehow create that opacity channel first by clever combination, still the conditional would be more intuitive and shorter.
