OpenOp
A one-button shortcut to a deeply nested operator: drop it on the field once, then a pulse opens its parameter window, its viewer window, or both.

This tool unlocks with Patreon. It installs through the same picker as everything else and unlocks with the Patreon Base tier or higher, connected from inside TouchDesigner. Everything else in the toolkit stays free and MIT, and the membership is what keeps that work moving.
What it is
Some operators matter and sit six levels deep. OpenOp keeps a reference to one of them where you can reach it: drag the operator onto the Op field, tick which windows you want, and the Open pulse brings them up from wherever you are in the network. Place one beside a control panel, or several in a small dashboard, and the important nodes are one click away.
It is a member of the FNS operator family: pick it from the FNS tab of the OP Create dialog and it lands as one node.
