In 2023 I submitted an rfe about this with H20 , that’s why I was wondering if it finally got noticed with the improved GUI and all.

But like a wise man once said "If you don't need it you could just ignore the option".

Thanks for all the pointers, but it smells like this feature is not added in the upcoming H22.

Undockable menu's are not about fancy editable floating shelfs or somehow configuring you own TAB menu's , it's just getting fast repeated access to already existing menu's to speed up the workflow.

TAB menu is not a menu , that's new to me ?

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.
