Hi, i d love to see 2 things in the editor.
a) Pressing TAB or another shortcut to type ur material (like nuke nodes).
b) Customise the side menu eg. i dont need to see all those textures on the side. I d like to make my favorites.

Thanks!

Hello,

Maybe add something like the commander from Cinema 4D to search nodes instead I know we have a search bar on top but having it assign to a shortcut and then appear under the mouse would be amazing.
Also something a little bit more advanced could be the ability to assign shortcuts to specific nodes like 'M' for multiply and 'I' for images texture.

Yes i know, but is far more convinient with the other ways we suggested. TAB and write what u need, saves alot of time in every node app. Like shift+C in c4d.

Also the category buttons act as filtering and not as making a list with only the ones u want ;) We d love to see those changes in there, if are easy to achieve. Also shortcuts as Terry said might be a very good way of doing things as well!
