Project QuickNav

Post by smhopton »

So I think it would be really helpful to have the ability to move around the sometimes crowded projects better. I was thinking ideally you would use Alt+MSWhl Up and Down to zoom in and out on the project nodes and even maybe Alt+ MsLeft Click and Hold to drag around on the projects. If that makes sense. Just a thought that would make my life a lot easier and quicker in a live setting. Also would be neat to have a feature that you could search for keywords such as a nodetype and have the matches highlighted on the screen. Such cases as having a trail on somewhere in a crowded project file in a live setting.


Thanks for everything!

You can drag the middle mouse button to scroll around. As far as zooming, there's not really a reason to do that because the text should always be legible but you can increase the font size with Window > Window Layout > Increase/Decrease Font Size.

Another thing you can do is auto-arrange your projects with Edit > Auto Arrange, which will space out the modules neatly.

As for the search, that's a good idea and I will put it on my list.
