This tool is useful to accelerate the workflow of any compositor while keeping their nodegraph organized and clean. It contains three
function with their keyboard shortcuts by default (which can be changed by the user)
The first tool allows the user to place the dots correctly to keep only horizontal and vertical lines in the nodegraph, so there
are no lines crossing with each other.
The second tool connects the input mask of the nodes (or the A input of the Merge nodes) through a keyboard shortcut
The same way Nuke allows you to connect a node input by pressing 'y', this tool allows you to connect the mask or A input by pressing
'Shift+y'
The third tool allows you to place a node right below the node connected to it in order to keep the pipeline vertical. Selecting the node you want
to relocate and pressing 'Shift+a' will relocate the selected node right below its predecessor keeping the X coordinate that it had previously.
