node parameter middle click increments to Perform Mode

General TouchDesigner Discussion

Is there a way to get the Node parameters integer and float fields middle click, increment functionality to perform mode?

I thought maybe it would be in the Container parameters or maybe in some kinda op viewer function but it is not. This would be great when I want to be precise set up for performance.

Right now my work around is not make a nodes parameters a floating window and disable “Always on Top” for my Perform Mode. Then I can edit values of the node using the middle click increment function while staying in perform mode.

Any leads would be great.

Cheers,
Javier

I can think of a few approaches:

Use custom parameters and open a parameters window via python.
Implement your own mouse logic in a Field or Slider COMP. This would require a bunch of scripting.

I’d really like to see a Parameter COMP which provides access to the built-in parameter UIs, but I imagine it would be a bunch of work to implement that.

use this:
n = op(‘your node’)
n.openParameters()
