Add Node Panel Menu

Add Node Panel Menu supports Blender versions 4.0 through 5.1, so it covers the 4.0 release and later builds within that range. If you run a version inside that span, the add-on is intended to work with it. For builds outside 4.0 to 5.1, compatibility isn't stated here, so check the developer's page before installing on an older or newer version. The add-on is released under the GPL license, and its documentation is available for reference.

Add Node Panel Menu supports both shader nodes and composite nodes. It reclassifies these nodes by relationship and assigns an icon to each one, which makes individual nodes easier to identify when you're choosing what to add. This is useful when you want to select a node while viewing all the available nodes at once. If your work spans shading and compositing, the add-on covers node adding in both areas rather than a single editor.

Add Node Panel Menu can be opened several ways. The panel menu lives in the Node Editor under the Side Menu (N key) > Add Node. A pop-up menu is bound to Alt + Ctrl + A, and a pie menu is bound to Shift + Right Mouse. These give you panel, pop-up and pie options for adding shader and composite nodes. Documentation is also provided by the developer for reference.

Add Node Panel Menu is listed as free in this catalog and is released under the GPL license. Licensing terms can change, so for the most current details it's best to check the developer's page directly. Beyond licensing, the add-on works across Blender 4.0 to 5.1 and supports both shader nodes and composite nodes. It offers panel, pop-up and pie menu access for adding nodes, along with documentation for reference.
