I'm trying to figure out the equivalent of node wrangler for geometry nodes, so with node wrangler add-on activated and pressing CTRL+SHIFT+LMB a node called viewer appears. The previous solution doesn't show what the current node is doing to the geometry, is there a shortcut that links the actual node with the group output, showing what an individual node and its predecessors is doing?

if you go to your add-ons -> node wrangler -> show hotkey list you will see:

so if you shift ctrl (or alt) LMB on a node, it automatically connects to the output.

Because i am working on a mac...my combination is Shift-Option-LMB.

if both (shift-alt-lmb and shift-ctrl-lmb) are not working, you should check whether these combinations are used for other actions. Then delete these other actions to make it work.

Viewer is used to preview the values in spreadsheet:

  • Online I've seen people showing the geometry output instead of values, do you know something like that? – bl4nk Jul 29 '22 at 11:10
  • Only if you'll connect node to group output... – Crantisz Jul 29 '22 at 11:12
  • Yeah, I know, but it seems like there is a shortcut that I'm missing. Instead to drag the output of the node to the group output, they make it with a shortcut, as the node wrangler in the shader editor – bl4nk Jul 29 '22 at 11:14
