Create Node Position Option

Post by nathanj »

Hi Tony,

I've been structuring my conversation nodes horizontally and find that this is a much more efficient use of space, or at least feel that it is.

Is there any way of having an option to generate new nodes to the right of selected node as opposed to below it?

Not currently, but that's a good idea. I'll add that as an option in a future release. I'm sure I can get that into the next release. If I have time, I'll also update the Auto Arrange feature so if you've selected horizontal layout it will auto-arrange nodes horizontally.

Hi Nathan,

The customer download site has a patch (20180406) that adds a horizontal option for node positions. On the node canvas, it's Menu > Settings > Add New Nodes To Right. If you've selected this option, the Auto Arrange feature will also auto-arrange horizontally instead of vertically.
