I recently discovered that opentoonz in fact have something similar to AE null tool/layer which i the PEG layer 
in an attempt to try it i searched on how to add it to my work
but couldn't find it anywhere , i read it could be found in "schematic" but didn't have any luck?

Hi.

You're right. This node is call "Peg Bar" and works similar as a empty layer in After Effetcs.

To add it, first, in Schematic switch to the Stage mode and you will see the adding Pegbars button in the right-bottom section panel.

Once you add the pegbar, you can animate it and add new nodes to this one.

Now, something very important: in OpenToonz, pegbars only can be linked to the table.

Best!
