- Hover to open — no click needed. With a node selected, move your cursor onto the dot at its top-right and the tools open on their own. Move away and it closes by itself, or click the ← at the top left.
- The dot grows into the panel rather than popping a separate window beside it — your cursor never has to cross a gap to reach the menu.
- Tools are laid out as a grid, so the panel is about half its old size and every tool is a shorter trip away.
- Tool names appear at the top of the panel: whichever icon you rest on, its name is spelled out up top.
- Touch devices still open by tapping; Apple Pencil hover works too — on the same iPad, finger taps and pencil hover each do the right thing.
- Clicks are ignored until the open animation finishes, so you can't trigger a tool while your hand is still on its way over.
