palette_one

A Blender 5.0 add-on that saves any selection of nodes as a named preset and places them in the node editor via the N-panel.

Features

• Node Registration 
  Save any node selection as a named preset. Works in Shader, Geometry, Compositor, and Texture node editors.
• Multi-Editor Support
  Full compatibility with Shader Editor, Geometry Nodes Editor, Compositor, and Texture Node Editor.
• Modal Placement
  Click "Place Preset" and nodes follow your cursor. Left-click to confirm, right-click or Esc to cancel.
• Tree-Type Labels
  Presets display (SHADER), (GEOMETRY), (COMPOSITOR), or (TEXTURE) so you always know their origin.
