    I don't think there's any way to currently do this, but maybe somebody can tell me otherwise. If I have several nodes lined up and I just select the final node to run, I will see the first node running and then get a green tick, but unless I remember what I selected there doesn't seem to be a way to tell which nodes are lined up to be run next? Maybe a suggestion would be to have another colour, let's just say a blue dot above nodes that are going to be run when available?

    In the attachment I select Node 3 to run, so therefore it started to run the Dummy Node, but I don't see a way for me to know that Node 1 and Node 2 are definitely going to be run next.

    In this example, (and when running in BRE) it makes sense to have an indication that a node has been "queued for execution".

    =====
    Upon first reading your request, I thought you wanted to know which node is "next".

    When you have a much more complicated set of relationships between the nodes, the decision as to which node is to be run "next" is not made until at least one of the currently running node(s) finish.

    Let's say you have two strings of nodes:
    A-B-C
    D-E-F
    and that you click run on all of them at once. All six of them would be "queued for execution".

    However, the decision of whether to run B or E first is dependent on which of A or D finishes first.
    The determination of "next" is not made until something finishes, and then the controller re-examines the entire execution queue.

    To clarify, I meant to identify if a node has been queued for execution, not which node will run directly next. Would be nice to have an indicator saying that a node is in the queue to be executed at some point, and if something happens to stop the graph, that indicator vanishes as the node is no longer queued.
