Question / Help Interact with Browser Source

Is there a plugin or something that can automatically open the interact window for a Browser Source plugin when it becomes active? I know I've developed a resource and helped work on another one where we need to interact with the Browser Source to do things and it would be a helluva a lot easier if it would just open up the interact window automatically instead of needing to manually do it.

If there is no plugin or resource right now, is it possible to do with Python in Studio?

This is one of those workarounds that I do NOT like, but for my purposes, it works. I use Touch Portal (TP) with OBS Studios to do family game nights during all of this craziness of quarantine. I wanted to be able to click a button on TP and have a game spinner pop up automatically and spin after a few seconds, then close the interact screen automatically. The spinner I use is a browser based application. Here's what I had to do:

Like I said, horrible workaround that could fail in multiple ways, but it works for this simple need I have. What makes it work is having the spinner source the top source in the scene (hence the Up key presses). The right button mouse click feature didn't seem to work correctly unless the scene was also selected in OBS, so I couldn't just have TP right click on the spinner once it became visible.

Anyway, good luck, wish there was a much easier way!
