Assign a Fixed Width to Selected Nodes.
Download the latest ZIP from Releases, or resize_nodes.py from repository, and install addon.
This addon creates a panel named Resize Node under Shader Editor > Sidebar > Arrange.
Select one or more Nodes to activate the buttons.
Blender 3.6 LTS locks the maximum width of nodes to 400, so the settings have been updated accordingly.
- 140
- 240
- 340
- 200
- 400 (Max Width) - The least practical option, so obviously it deserves the largest button. 😊
- 140
- 240
- 340

- 550
- 640
- 200
- 700 (Max Width) - The least practical option, so obviously it deserves the largest button. 😊
👉 Toggle Hidden Sockets
- Node height get maximized to show all sockets, or minimized to show only used/essential sockets.
In Blender 2.83, when adding a Node Wrangler Texture Setup, the Mapping Node comes in at 240 wide – much too fat – so I have to manually slim it down to 140 every 😖 single 😖 time 😖. I couldn't find a way to change the default width on this node and save it in the startup file, so I duplicated the Node Arrange addon and hacked it to make this.
Seconds after writing the previous line, I realized I could just edit node_wrangler.py and solve my initial grief. 🤦.
But no matter – The buttons are still a convenient shortcut for tweaking Node widths and soothing my mild OCD.
This addon pairs well with 3DSinghVFX's work-in-progress Align Nodes.
