I've seen quite a lot of Blender "help" videos, Premium and free over the years, but only a very small few (and here as well; Premium or free) are as to-the-point, clear, competent and BS-less as this excellent video. Thanks!!

[@Brandon-3D]

Dave, thank you so much! That means a lot to me and those frustrations with other tutorial videos were exactly why I started making these. Thank you!!

[@joe_fabricator]

Just watched this video again. I'm currently doing a Geo Nodes course and this is Extremely useful, thanks again for this.

[@lomaxdesigns1716]

A near perfect tutorial! Blender is such a huge program and I often find myself in situations where I used to know how to do a thing, but have forgotten that pesky shortcut. In this case, just needed Ctrl+J. Clicked through this at 2x speed. Bish-bash-bosh, got it! Jobs a good'un!

[@thefreshest2379]

Shift + Right click and drag over noodle to place a reroute node faster (might need node wrangler)

[@rikovladimir8655]

I'm still amazed at the sheer ergonomic of blender everything is so tailored to the user and you have complete control over everything

[@joe_fabricator]

I've been putting in lots of time learning Geometry Nodes and THIS video is Gold, thank you. Specifically, saving Node Groups in to your Asset Browser. Thanks very much Brandon 🤓

[@fullyleaded]

OMG ! THE NODE PREVIEW ADDON! Ive seen it on a few tutorial videos and asked every single one what it is and no one has ever replied! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@4manvfx27]

Man I can't tell you enough how much I wanted this video...Thanks a ton !

[@Brandon-3D]

Love it when that happens! Glad to help, and thank you so much!!

[@lokyloky3420]

I had to save groups of nodes to my startup file, had no idea we could make assets out of them! Thank you!

[@IstyManame]

That was really helpful. BTW, is there any way to drag rerouts around?

[@Brandon-3D]

Yes. Select it and press “G” like you would with objects. Thank you!!

[@todesdigga3891]

The method posted by thefreshest with Shift + Right click while dragging over a noodle (or several noodles) is also something I use all the time and that speeds rerouting up significantly

[@todesdigga3891]

A very straightforward presented video, also knowing these methods it is perfect for revisiting my own options of node organization, thanks!

[@Brandon-3D]

Thank you!!!

Saya sangat bingung tentang geometry node untuk mulut clay, tapi saya sangat senang anda memberi tahu saya di video ini. Terimakasih atas ilmunya

[@sidekick3rida]

There's also the "Node Arrange" built-in addon which organizes nodes. It's a panel that shows up in node editors.

[@abdessamadhasnaoui6887]

thanks man you re great

[@DrunkenUFOPilot]

Came here because I couldn't remember the trick to make a group. No not that kind of group, the other kind of group. Aha, it's called a "frame", ctrl-J. *Now* I know everything about Blender!

[@Brandon-3D]

Haha! Awesome!!

[@CarlosEduardoLeitedeAndrade]

Great! Where is the best place to put "global" node groups in the blender file (not at assets)? Create an fake object?

[@todesdigga3891]

You could create a Geometry Nodes Setup with all your Nodegroups without connecting and click the little shield next to the name of the Node Tree, that way it would not be deleted even if you delete the object where you created it. But Assets are easier
