Hasta La Motion!

1) When viewing through a 3D camera POV, how can I lock interactive pan/zoom/track movements to transform the selected camera position (like Maya) ?

2) How do I align a group of selected nodes in nodegraph ?

3) Is there a way to create a viewer buffer that contains an incremental history of previous buffers, and perhaps a way to add notes, time stamp and save these buffers to an .exr ? For progressive swatch comparisons.

4) How do I search and replace text strings in a nuke script ?

5) Is there a way to echo interactive commands as python in the script window ? For cut/paste use in building python scripts.

6) Is there a node/panel/palette where I can drag two color picker swatch samples and make a mathematical difference calculation (e.g. add/multiply) between two colors ?

Thanks for any replies,
M.

I’m used to Xcode for original Mac apps, iPhone devleopment and things like After Effects plugins but the Nuke NSK is setup for standard make files so all the things like organizing files, having reference document links and setting breakpoints in the text files are gone.

Any advice on building and moving the built plugins to .Nuke and debugging?

Thanks.

Cheers,

The problem with displacegeo is we’d need to subdivide the CVs on the geometry too much to get the articulation 3D is achieving in maya with a bump map and it strikes me that if he’s given me the .obj as he made it, I should be able to then extrude it the way he’s doing it within Nuke, since he apparently can’t export the .obj with the bump map projection baked in.

The problem with relight is that I don’t seem to have it. I have relightsimple with NFX but that doesn’t work in my version of nuke since the last update.

The thread I am referring to is here:

It is quite out of date now I guess because of all the updates, as is the NUK210 fxPhD course I keep looking thru for help.
