Imagine opening a scene from another colleague or yourself that you worked on 6 months ago, that has 10 different and complex tyflow setups.
To re-familiarize yourself with what is going on, you need to spend hours checking one by one each operator on each different tyflow object and discover the associations with all the scene objects and helpers that may drive the tyflow setups.
This painful experience could get simplified, if there was a tyExplorer panel.
A scene-explorer like panel, where we see a high overview of all tyflow objects, its operators, and all associated objects with them, and if they have expressions, keyframes etc. animation. It should be like a hierarchy, where the " top root parent" is the tyflow object and the "childs" are the operators from that tyflow object. The operators would have their own "children" in the form of any associated scene objects/helpers, and everything should be color-coded in case keyframes/expressions exist. Adding notes to the tyflow objects, could be visible from this panel as well.
I believe a birds-eye view panel like this, would help decipher complex tyflow setups much easier and faster.
Thoughts?
