Option to render nodes over top of links. about imnodes

Hi @jonathan2222 ! It should be doable, just requires some trickery with the draw channels. I'll see what I can do once I make some progress on one of the previous issues 👍

If you're itching to try it out, I think the following change inside the EndNodeEditor function should work:

diff --git a/imnodes.cpp b/imnodes.cpp

     object_pool_update(editor.links);

I'm going to have to do some more testing on my end though and clean up the code a bit!

Hi @Nelarius! Thank you for the fast reply!

That change inside the EndNodeEditor function worked really nice, the only problem is that I can still interact with the links when hovering over the nodes. I will use this for the time being and wait for the update.
I really appreciate the work you have put into this, thank you! 👌

@jonathan2222 I pushed the change in 8ecdd39. Added some additional logic to inhibit link interaction when overlapped with a node. 🙂
