Some cool and very help full nuke short-cut's

Here i'm going to share some cool and very help full nuke short-cut's with you friends. These are all my favourite short-cut's inside nuke.

1. "ctrl+up arrow or ctrl+down arrow"

you can move your selected node to above or below the next node.

But this will not work with multiple nodes. You cant move multiple nodes with this short-cut. (you can create some python code for doing this)


2. "crtl+shift+c"

This will pop-up the selected nodes "tile_color" picker window. You can color code the selected node or nodes same time.


3. "ctrl+right arrow & left arrow"

This will jump into half of the time in your time line. example: If your current frame is 50 ctrl+left arrow will jump to 25th frame. If you give it again it will jumb into 13. Your mouse should in viewer window.



This short-cut also work with key frames. you can jump in-between the key-frames exactly.

4. "n"

will rename the selected node in the node graph.


5. "y" & "alt+y"

'y' connect the first selected node to next selected node.

"alt+y' connect the mask input with next selected node.



6. "r" with selection write node.

Hitting 'r' with selection a write node will take you to selected write nodes file path (DIR). User can easily read the rendered file's into nuke by using this short-cut. By default 'r' will take you to the home folder.



7. "alt+w" to draw new ROI region.

User can draw the ROI region as per their need by hitting 'alt+w'. This shortcut will reset the ROI and user can specify the area. 'shift+w' for toggle on & off of the ROI.

8. "ctrl+node selection"

Normal selection select any on node. "ctrl+node selection" will select all the nodes connected with your current selection. This will help you to copy the hole set-up for pre-comp and organize your script.

9. "render order" in write nodes.

This option will help us to render the write nodes in order. By using this we can source files from current render. You can use multiple pre-comps and then sourcing the files to next peace of comp.


This future will help us lot of the time. Personally this is one of my favourite future in nuke.

10. Numeric " / & * "

Scale-up and scale-down the bg input in rotoPaint node. User can scale up and down the reveal or clone source using these keys. Shift and alt with these keys will increase and decrease the scale up and down value.

Numeric " 0 & . "

These two keys rotate the bg input respectively minus and plus. Shift and alt with these keys will increase and decrease the scale up and down value.



Usual nudging  key's will move the BG X & Y.


11. "ctrl+enter" - "shift+escape"

ctrl+enter will open selected group node into group node graph.

shift+escape will close the current node graph.


12. "ctrl+L" in viewer.

"ctrl+L in viewer" will lock the current camera. It turns on the camera icon into red. User also do this by clicking the camera icon using mouse.

ctrl+ mouseClick will turn the camera mode interactive. The icon will turn into green color. User can animate the camera interactively by this way.
( this will work for Light and Camera)



Continue...... 

Friends you can suggest some more cool short-cut's.

Export Nuke's retime information

Export Nuke's retime information To 3D packages: This is happen while working with production. In most cases retiming is done beforehand or at the end of a comp. Some time shots getting retimed after Match-move is done. By that time Nuke's retime data (curve) will help to match the tracked camera to new retimed plate. Here is the trick to export nuke's retime date (curve) to 3D packages such as maya, max, Houdini etc. Here im explaining how to export nuke's retime curve to maya. Constant re-speed. I want to retime my input by 200%. Add a retime node and change the speed to 2. Don't forget to change the filter option to None . Retime node doesn't generate retime curve at all. So note down the output range. It changed from original range 1001 - 1042 to 1001 - 1021. Which means our input ended with 1021. Add a TimeWarp node and set keyFrames based on our retime output result. Set a key frame at 1001 as 1001 in input frame knob. Got

Lock and unLock node settings in nuke

Lock and unLock node knobs Nuke doesn't have inbuilt function for lock the node settings( knobs, sliders), Like fusion's node lock function. While working with bigger scripts most of the time we accidentally  adjust the node sliders with out knowing which node is selected. ( what the hell is happening i didn't adjust anything..... ????!!!!! ) This code lock selected nodes knobs. So no worrier’s about accident changes. Right click on the nodes property panel. You will get knobLock & unlock short-cut key. menu.py: import lockNode nuke.menu("Properties").addCommand('lock_Knobs', 'lockNode.lockNode(True)') nuke.menu("Properties").addCommand('unlock_Knobs', 'lockNode.lockNode(False)') Download:  locknode.py Hope this will help you friends.

Working with UV pass inside NUKE

Working with UV pass inside NUKE UV pass will allow you to re-texture surfaces and add some elements ( like text, batches, picture frame ) later in the compositing stage. Here i place my name on the surface and apply motion blur inside nuke. Creating UV pass inside MAYA: Maya 2012 have inbuilt UV render pass. Open up render settings under Passes tab select create render passes and choose UVpass and add. Maya->Render Settings->Passes->UVpass If you want to create custom UV pass Follow below link. http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=13481445&linkID=9242258 Enable float values for rendering For render UV pass from MAYA you must change your colour bit depth from the standard RGBA 4x8Bits per channel to RGBA (Float) 4x32 Bit (full float). Open up your 'Render Settings' and at the bottom of the 'Quality' tab change the 'Date Type' to 'RGBA (Float) 4x32 Bit. choosing File format f
