Hi there,
When using readers in a larger workspace, sometimes I might need to reference the reader (or a bookmark involving the reader after some post processing like changing coordinate system or renaming some attributes) multiple times in the workspace, either at the start, middle, or end. If something is being used, say 5 times, and crosses multiple bookmarks and transformers, I will use hidden connections to keep things readable, however it can still be a hassle if I need to use a certain reader/transformer/junction that is at a certain place in a large workspace, where I might currently be working in another area. I will then need to zoom out and scroll to it, and then drag the connection all the way over to where I want to use it.
A way to get around this, is to have the ability to pin readers/transformers/junctions that are used a lot in a workspace and have many connections already, so that if it needs to be used again, you can simply connect to it wherever it is pinned in the window (and then can unpin it again after that if preferred), so that you can connect to any part of a workspace from any other location without having zoom in and out and scroll and repeat, just to create one connection
Cheers!
