A router added to force a connection to be drawn at an angle.
Routers are tiny nodes with a single input and an output, but with no parameters except for a
comments field (available in the Inspector), which you can use to add notes about what’s
happening in that part of the composition.
Even more usefully, you can branch a router’s output to multiple nodes, which makes routers
even more useful for keeping node trees neat in situations where you want to branch the output
of a node in one part of your node tree to other nodes that are all the way on the opposite end
of that same node tree.
A router branching its output to multiple nodes.
Methods of using routers:
To add a router to a connection: Option-click anywhere on a connection.
To move a router: Drag the router to a new location, and the connection will reshape
itself as necessary.
To branch a router’s output: Drag a connection from the router output to the input of
another node. You can branch a router’s output as many times as you need to.
To remove a router: Select any router and press the Delete key, or right-click a router
and choose Delete from the contextual menu.
