I´m lost in the material editor

Hi,

I´ve slipped into a idiot problem and google doesnt has an answer for me, so I hope you can help me with that: I made a material function and after quite a bit of time I inadvertently scrolled with the outputnode in my hand. And now I cant find the other nodes a made. Is there a function that cant bring me back to all the other nodes or at least connect the output to these, so that i can follow the line and backtrack?

Ok I finally found a solution and I will write it down here for others like me:

1.With the “Home”-button (the little house in the top bar) you can always jump to the output.
2.With the “Search”-function (the binoculars in the top bar) I searched for one of my “multiply”-nodes, so that I found my other nodes again.

Then there are two options:

  1. Create a new “Ouput result” node and connect the stuff, while deleting the first output result
  2. Jumping back and forth and figure out in which direction of the editor I have to look for the rest of my nodes.

I hope that helps somebody in the future :slight_smile:

Also can just roll the mouse scroll wheel backwards, which zooms out, so you can find your network :slight_smile:
