whinton:
I was wondering if there is a way to access bpy.data.node_groups so that I could create a popup menu to quickly pull up different node trees in the node editor.
Each node editor has its own way to access the data. For example:
Change active animation node group:
C.space_data.node_tree = D.node_groups['Node Group Name']
Change active shader node group:
C.space_data.id_from.active_material = D.materials['Material Name']
To create a popup menu for animation nodes editor add a new Regular Menu with 1 slot and use this code in Custom tab (Tested in Blender 2.79):
[operator(L, "pme.exec", text=ng.name, icon='CHECKBOX_HLT' if C.space_data.node_tree == ng else 'CHECKBOX_DEHLT', cmd="C.space_data.node_tree = D.node_groups['%s']" % ng.name) for ng in D.node_groups]
