Hi!
I just found out about the Layout -> Layout Nodes Left. Alternatively, you can press and hold "A" + left-click and drag in the direction you want them to stack.
Wonderfull, but!! It's not in alphabetical order. Any way to change the behavior?

I don't think so.
But for this particular case, where all nodes are disconnected, you can lay them out alphabetically with a tiny bit of Python:

import hou selection = hou.selectedNodes() node_paths = [] for node in selection: node_paths.append(node.path()) node_paths = sorted(node_paths) for node_path in node_paths: # Either create your own layout rules here, using position(), # setPosition() and shiftPosition() methods of hou.Node class, # or use: hou.node(node_path).moveToGoodPosition()
