WirelessLink
Route a source without long visible wires
Provides a wireless reference to a source branch so the same image can be reused elsewhere in a large Flow without drawing a long cable across the graph.
WirelessLink
Overview
What WirelessLink does
Long cables crossing a large Flow make debugging difficult. WirelessLink lets a source be represented locally near the nodes that consume it.
The node is most useful when the source is stable and clearly named. Overusing wireless routing can make a graph mysterious because the visual wire that explains data flow is no longer present.
Use WirelessLink to remove clutter, not to hide architecture. Important branch boundaries should still be obvious from names and grouping.
When to use it
Reuse a plate in distant parts of a large Flow
Avoid cables crossing several node groups
Expose a shared matte or utility pass near consumers
Keep complex templates visually compact
