Does anyone know if we get "undockable" menu's in 22 so we don't have to navigate 3 or 4 levels deep again and again when looking for a SOP , especially when using the TAB ?
That would be a great addition , coming from XSI I still really miss that feature.

Could you elaborate on what the ask is and how it would fit into the workflow vs. what’s the challenge right now? What menus are we talking about?
And especially when using several level deep menu's , so that they are directly accessible this could be a huge improvement.
Whereas in Houdini we still have to dive into menu's several levels deep agai and again , every time we need to access a feature , or are searching what SOP does the trick.

But no matter what you call the popups that appear when hitting TAB or RMB to access a SOP or feature in the Network view , Scene View or any other viewport , it would be great if one could click on a window like that , and just "undock" it so it's directly accessible like in the XSI screencap and you can click the same or next option in the list instead of having to hit TAB and select : " ... Dynamics > Vellum > Velum Brush " ... "TAB > Dynamics > Vellum > Velum Solver." ... "TAB > Dynamics > Vellum > Velum Solver." ..."TAB > Dynamics > Vellum > Velum Unpack." etc. etc.
I know in this example one can type "vellum" and get a list of all Vellum SOPS , but that doesn't always work and undocking would still be faster , especially when one is looking for the right SOP and don't know the name by heart , like some of us .
So now that SideFX is kind of redoing the GUI , something like this would be a great addition.
I think a better idea should be a 'floating shelf' that you can just resize and move around and drag&drop any node onto it. Like a shelf tab but easier to customize for temporary need.

Exactly. Rather than trying to make it copy other packages.
