I've seen people on other softwares isolate their nodes directly on their objects, in the render viewport, to better work on it.

I was wondering, is it possible to do that in blender ?

    $\begingroup$ You can use the built-in Node Wrangler addon to do that although you do have to activate it from Preferences > Addons first. See this Blender Manual section which explains how to use it. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Use CTRL-SHFT - LMB to activate the viewer on the clicked node. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @JohnEason Thanks ! I'd also add that the downside of it, is to not forget to do CTRL + SHIFT + (selection mouse button) on your last node to put everything back how it was $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @Chris ctrl+shift+7 doesn't seem to work... $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @Shad I'd not call that a 'downside'. It seemed obvious to me so I didn't mention it but I've been using it for so long that it's an automatic reaction to reset by CTRL-SHFT clicking back on the original node. $\endgroup$
