(I'll start this thread) :slight_smile: These are ideas/bumps (n the road) for me when I'm using the editor. //== I have LOT of tabs. I find it annoying that if I have the debug set to this flow the list is still quickly swallowed (wiped) because other flow debug nodes are included in the outp…

I fear I didn't explain it well enough. Attempt 2. I'm working in a node. It needs a structure and as is, it isn't getting the correct one. So the incoming message needs to be altered. So THIS node's documentation explains what is expected. I click on the node upstream to edit it and that impor…

[image] Trying_to_learn: Yes, but the Problem there I see is that all the information is not on the one page. So people like me who can't always remember things would still have to swap pages. If you use a good browser, it should support page tiling which allows you to combine tabs in a sing…

[image] Trying_to_learn: I click on the node upstream to edit it and that important information is gone as I am now looking at the new node's documentation. Isn't that what the screenshot shows? The upstream node is the Inject node now being edited, the documentation pane is showing the Join …

I may need to put my thinking hat on and look more into that. Thanks.

i am heavy node-red user with 100's of automations.. few on top of my list debug node should print all properties (not just payload) by default. a central place to store the settings/credentials with user friendly UI (see this thread where I ended by creating a contrib) . Current global context re…

[image] hoolahoous: debug node should print all properties (not just payload) by default. Well there are alias nodes that I created. One of those is debug entire message node. This is a hack solution to do something that could be really useful for exactly that situation: different default va…

it will be awesome to allow setting defaults for each node type so any new node dragged into console is created with the defaults.
