Locks Viewer nodes to a fixed screen-space position when panning and zooming around the node graph. I find this helpful when working in larger scripts comparing read nodes up the top to a comp down the bottom. It makes it easier to keep track of what's plugged into the viewer.

With multiple viewers it lays them out in a column, and highlights the active viewer node.

It works in node graphs from inside group nodes, but currently this only works for one node graph at a time, based on which node graph you have open when turning the feature on. As of yet untested in PreComps or Live-Groups

Currently only tested in Nuke 11.3 on Windows 10, but I haven't got reason to assume it won't work on other platforms, or versions of Nuke going back to 11.0 when PySide2 was introduced.
