No problem Jonathan.
A quick update to this following discussions with SideFX:
1) I don't recall if this was mentioned in the thread earlier, but they
mentioned that you can enable/disable the auto-connect on wires using
CTRL+8 or in the Network View menu under Tools-> Allow Dropping Nodes on
Wires. This doesn't work during a drag operation though, so I've gone
back and explained the desired workflow of having a modifier key to
toggle the behaviour during the dragging of nodes. I just thought I'd
post this in here now case it's useful to anyone in the mean time.
2) They pointed out that I was incorrect when I said earlier in this
thread there wasn't an equivalent view of Softimage's Explorer view
where you can see clean hierarchies of objects. You can do it in the
Tree View. You just need to enable the Object Filter (the first button
in the Tree View's tool bar). You can also right click on the Tree View
toolbar, and there are various other options in there which can be
helpful for sorting and grouping the objects in a tree structure.
Definitely worth playing with anyway. Sorry for the misinformation before!
Cheers,
A

I also like Pauls idea of a modifier key to disable the auto
connection on demand. Definitely seems a worthwhile enhancement
request.
FYI, I’ve submitted an RFE to Side Effects and sent them the link to
this thread.
