Setting up sub-models would be easier if I can see the pixel layout with the numbers at the same time.

Run your mouse over the pixels on the image at the right in the submodel dialog.

Well aint that nifty, I had not even noticed that one.

Figured out clicking the column headers would light up all the pixels not just the row I was working on and that helped!

I was going to give that answer but I tried it first and hovering over pixels wasn't popping anything up for me.

I tried again and some nodes work but there are several nodes on the model I was using that just won't popup a number.

The sweet spot is really small. The challenge in making it bigger is the risk of overlaps in the sweet spot with nearby nodes.

I enlarged the dialog.  Some nodes had no sweet spot.
