roto shape life time settings

roto shape life time based on keyframes This is long time request. I haven't got time to look into this after joined in MPC. Got some time yesterday. Thought to update my blog with new tool. Here is the simple tool but much needed one ( i hope). One of my friend requested to automate roto shapes lifetime based on the key frame. We use multiple way to set roto shapes lifetime. Some artists uses lifetime tab in roto node, Some simply move the roto shape out of the working resolution. Some guys are using 'multiply' node to achieve this. Some artists animating 'visible' knob in roto node. The way of doing this will differ from artist to artist. How to make this organised ?. Here is the idea: lifetimeRoto.py Most of us using nuke roto node lifetime tab set the lifetime based on the frame range. Some artists using mouse click option in curve window in roto node. In both way we need to feed the frame range either we need to choose to-end or to start.
