I feel like I'm just missing something, a preference option or am looking in the wrong place, but I have several plugins with a LOT of parameters and I would just like the freedom to tweak and automate any of them without first having to find and arm the right envelopes.

Thanks in advance for any help!
Hi Mister,

check SWS extensions and its action S&M "Arm all active envelopes for selected tracks", and of course disarm one.
And with plugins it shouldn't be necessary, if you switch track automation mode to touch, write or latch mode.. Any plugin control change, will be automatically written to corresponding automation lane. Without activating parameter first. That is, how i use it.
Also check action "FX: Show/hide track envelope for last touched FX parameter", it can be mapped to keystroke and elegantly used for quick adding of new automation lane for last touched plugin control when you are working in standard trim/read automation mode.
