In this video I show a small new feature : when dragging values on to edges (or connections as I like to call them), for node-types that support it ... a small preview shows the node output as a hint above the node. Currently only the expression and sum node-type support this. I am looking for a way to have every node-type support this.
Another small tweak is that the expression node-type triggers its output directly when the expression is changed. Previously the whole flow was retrigged and this new behavior feels much better.
Thanks, however I just implemented it.. not 100% sure where the inspiration came from.. whether it was our private talk or the FoC podcast about "Moving beyond syntax".. something there triggered me.. so thank you!
I recorded the video a bit too fast and didn't take that into account 😊
Also one the older bret victor papers/videos inspired me here (not sure which one) subconsciously, but my implementation is much more simple.. a preview of a node output by inputting the dragged value
