Any plans to include some tools to help navigation and layouting the node graphs?

I just discovered the hidden overview in the top right, but hotkeys for zooming and arringing nodes would be great.

Sure, do you have any other requests besides zoom all and auto-layout?

  • Zoom extents all/selected,
  • Auto-layout all/selected (not sure whether there should be some variants, e.g.horizontally vs vertically?)
  • Some sort of grid snapping to facilitate manual alignment
  • Open/collapse selected

Ok, I'll keep the first three in mind. The last one is already possible if you select multiple nodes and click their expand/collapse triangle.

suggestions for node/graph organization

  1. Group/ungroup nodes. Title and colorize groups.
  2. Notes/comments in the graph
  3. Align selected nodes: Top, Left, Right, Center etc.
  4. Evenly space selected nodes.
