    I have a couple apps that have this feature where you can strip a menu off and have it available as its own window.

    It would be outstanding to be able do this with the Plugins menu in particular.

      Presumably a small web-dialog that was menu-like could be made for each menu ?
      How I'm not so sure... πŸ˜•

        I've always though Glasier's nset plugin could be adapted to make a great menu system.

        It would not be overwhelming to just code it by hand - the total number of plugins is in the hundreds; and if only the most popular were included it would be in the dozens.

        Sometimes in my quest to automate everything, I overlook the obvious solution. In this case, just brute-force write a list of names and methods in a webdialog. Once created, it wouldn't be hard to update.

          A list of file names and their UI methods - where the list is populated if the plugin is installed... hmm..

          Could also be made with an API for plugins to automatically add them self to the list.

            And with jQuery, drag-and-drop sorting.

            I've talked myself into needing this.

              Yea, jQuery is a nice lib. I just upgraded TT_Lib to use 1.4 - general speed improvements. πŸ˜„

                This plugin is very similar.

                  There isn't any way to enumerate the menus and toolbar buttons plugins has registered?
