When developing flows, I find myself with many debug nodes taking up a lot of space on the tab.
I wonder if the functionality of the Debug node could be delivered as an attribute of every node output.
It might look similar to the breakpoint used by the Node-RED flow debugger, but green of course!
I imagine that you might add/remove the debug feature by double-clicking the node output. And by double-clicking the green area, you would open the properties dialog just like the Debug node has.
Morning @quarfie,
Personally I like this idea a lot. Two remarks:
Is there any reason why you want to apply it only to outputs. Because if you have a N-to-1 node relation (with a large N) then it would be usefull to have it also on inputs imho..
Yes if you would have such a property dialog, you would be able to add - in the future - other features. For example a checkbox "Add routing info to msg". To support something like discussed here? Just to mention why I like your proposal...
