Small (annoying) problem with having nodes autoconnect May 8, 2020, 6:36 a.m.
Hi guys! I have a small problem which bugs me for a while. Whenever I drop a new node into the network via the Tab popup menu and I hover with the node before dropping it just close enough to an existing node, a wire connection is created automatically between the 2 nodes after I finally drop the node.
However when I try to do the same thing with a node for which I've assigned a hotkey it does not work, so after pressing the hotkey and dropping the node making sure is close enough to other node in the network view the 2 nodes are not automatically connected no matter how close I try to hover to the existing node.
Do you know why is that and if there is a fix for it? I know it's a small thing but I want to work faster by using hotkeys to different nodes and is kind of annoying to drop and connect the nodes after.
