OpMenu Mods
Greg's IO Filters
This OP Create dialog mod by Greg Hermanovic installs automatically from FunctionStore_tools/Gregs_opmenu_mod and adds filtering options to the OP Create dialog menu to the top right, showing only IO operators (IO option), or ops without the IO ones (-IO) or all (All, default).
IO operators are considered ones that interact with resources outside of TouchDesigner such as sensors or web interfaces.
Custom Search Keywords
For each OP Type you can define custom search keywords. For example you can find Pattern CHOP by typing ramp or cos, or you can find Audio File In by typing music in the OP search field. The definition table is fully customizable through the custom UI, and is synced across project files.
Dotsimulate's OpType acronyms
Thanks to Dotsimulate, you can also list OpTypes based on their acronym. Meaning you can find Movie File Out by typing m f o, and so on.
QuickOp
This is an alternative and quicker way of adding new operators, and was suggested by Greg Hermanovic to be implemented, which I happily obliged to.
Ctrl-Dragging and operator somewhere will pop the OP create dialog, and the selected operator will be placed in the position of the previous drag.
Similarly, Shift-Dragging will Insert a new operator between two operators.
