The primary way of selecting sockets is with SHIFT + RMB. First this was implemented as simple RMB select, but this turned out to be quite chaotic since it effectively allows multiple nodes selected (see [1]). Selecting sockets with LMB is a side effect of the select-on-link "feature" (which i'd like to remove again). You see this area is pretty complicated, lots of different little features interfering with each other :S > Auto hide sockets: > As I can see from your post you are all the time thinking about > automatic behavior. > If I may suggest something - I'd rather leave more options to the user. Yeah, i implemented this on explicit request (i think Sebastian asked for it, don't remember), i suggest you talk to him. The CTRL+H idea seems good, i didn't realize this doesn't work on the auto-hidden sockets now. Feedback is important for us coders :) Will have to check with core devs if i can add this right away of have to wait for next BCon1.
