Automation Node Label Behavior

[sjoens]

For some reason the lower node values appear above the higher values.  At certain positions they disappear altogether.  This can confuse us not-so-bright users.

One workaround would be to stand on your head when this happens.

This is due to the position of the nodes relative to the boundaries of the lane.  By default, the value is always shown above the node - unless there's not enough room, in which case it'll show it below.

Also, not all values are shown if it would cause them to draw on top of each other. 

The solution to both issues is either to zoom in, or turn off showing values.

Stupid Question: Can this be bind as a shortcut? I'm lazy to grab the laptop to check for this, because I missed a lot of the RWC23 in France so now im trying catch up on some highlights. 🙂
