Node Z-Order

[sil...@gmail.com]

Hi,

Is there any way of bringing a node to the top of the Z-order, i.e. bring to front, so that it's label and visual style are not obscured by other nodes?

Thanks

Sure, just set the Z-order by bringing up the Z Location Visual Property (Style panel->Properties->Z Location) and setting a Bypass value.  Note that this will be ignored if the network is dense unless you set the level of detail higher (it will always be honored when exporting as graphics, though).

Yep, that's done it - for some reason I never knew that was there, is it a recent addition? I'm using 3.2.1 but have been after this setting since about 2010!

Thanks anyway

I think I added that in 3.2.  You may want to upgrade, though.  There are a number of new features and performance enhancements in 3.3 and 3.4, and all of your apps should work without any issues after you upgrade.
