Overview mode for nodes

Geo nodes idea.png Add botton(hotkey) to switch to overview mode where every node collapse and have one input/output. Can be useable for readability of nodes and can be used also with N-panel to toggles values. That idea for geometry nodes and shader editor or any node based system in blender. FFeo4reXMAM0wj7.png

I do not understand.... Create a function? NO you just dump everything and complain that it is not convenient. Combine nodes into groups!

If your lower picture is from a real example, you could really benefit from moving up to a higher level of abstraction. Group nodes, give the groups meaningful names and interfaces (inputs and outputs), and your mental image as well as your work will be much easier. :)

I don't understand your last picture, it doesn't seem to illustrate a scenario that would be fixed by your proposal :o

In Node Contex Menu it is possible to shrink the nodes more prnt.sc/22rb0wz

You can reduce it even more by clicking on the arrows, but here you have to go through each node separately, than I agree that you need a hotkey for this prnt.sc/22rb1zt
