Hey everyone, loving the latest enhancements to standalone, the one thing that I would LOVE to see though in the node editor is some kind control for the node arms, much like Nuke currently has... right click on a node arm and you are able to add a control joint so your arms don't cross over everything, giving you a much easier time reading where things are going. It would be great to see something like this implemented in Octane!

OR the ability to right click on a node and be able to reverse where the node connections are depending your setup. Right now they are all stuck on the top, being able to right-click and move them to the bottom of some of the nodes would add to the cleanliness of the node area. Thoughts?

Attached is a screen grab of Nuke's node arms.

The good improvement would be to have the node connections pass under the nodes and not on top of them... without undo sometimes disaster can happen...
