rDesign Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Nik - take a look at this previous thread. It should answer your question. Helpful tip from Pat Stanford quoted from that thread: And those nodes MUST be saved as a symbol. That is the part I was missing. It is probably best to check the "Convert to Plugin Object" box on the create dialog otherwise you will have to manually ungroup the node before you can use it as part of a network. Your nodes will be saved in a separate sub category than the default nodes. So if you create a file 01. Basic Math with some nodes (as symbols) in it, it will not just add them into the Basic Math sub-category, but will give you two Basic Math sub categories. The first with the info from the User Folder, the second with the data from the Application folder. The good news is that you don't have to restart VW for it to recognize that new nodes (or files/folders) have been added. They just appear. Quote Link to comment
