Output

A toolbar button for the perform window: drop an operator to route it, click to open or close, and switch NDI and Spout/Syphon streaming of the same window.

Where it appears

Read off the registry hosts in the component, so this is where the tool puts itself in a default install; every one of these can be reordered or hidden from Hub.

Perform Window Tools

Drag and drop an operator onto the toolbar button to make it the Window Operator of the /perform Window, with no trip into the Window COMP's parameters. Left-click opens the perform window, and closes it again if it is open. Right-click opens the configuration popup, which also has the switches for streaming that same window out over NDI and Spout (Syphon on macOS); both ship switched on, under the sender names on the component's parameters.

Which window it drives is the Perform parameter of the button itself (button_perform, parent shortcut Main). That is what the drop writes through, so pointing it at another Window COMP takes effect on the next drop with nothing to re-install.

Parameters

Its Registry page comes from FNS_ConfigRegistry and FNS_ToolbarRegistry.

Sender NameSendername textTDSyphonSpoutOut The name other applications see this Spout/Syphon stream under. Change it when two TouchDesigner instances would otherwise publish the same name.
NDI ActiveNdiactive on / offon Stream the perform window over NDI, so machines on the same network can receive it.
