Using the (relatively) new Batch Search bar… Is there a way to have it add the node under the cursor without any connections? I can add a node with connections but if I add a node with nothing selected, the new node gets dropped at the home/origin of the batch schematic.

With my experience in version 2021.2 the new node gets dropped at the home/origin. In version 2021.2.2 or newer the new notes are dropped at the cursor.

Just make sure you don’t have a node highlighted before you search and it will drop it at the cursor location.
