------------------------------
v0.0.4 added check for supported file formats which also fixes bad read nodes created for sub directories
------------------------------
v0.0.3 fixes a problem with white spaces in file names. make sure to have compressList2.tcl in your plugin path
This has become somewhat of a Frankenstein script and needs rewriting but for now I hope it holds together.
------------------------------
v0.0.2 fixes a problem in 4.5.27 where the file string for Read and ReadGeo nodes contained the frame range as part of the file name and would cause the node to error out.
------------------------------
v0.0.1 fixes a problem where a redraw problem occurred in Nuke when a large number of files were dragged into the DAG (i.e. thousands)
------------------------------
This is a beefed up version of the drop.tcl that ships with Nuke.
It will need the compressList.tcl installed in Nuke's plugin path
Existing features:
dropping image files into the DAG will create Read nodes
dropping a nuke script (or nuke autosave script) will merge those nodes with the current script
New features:
dropping an obj into the DAG will create a ReadGeo node
A chan file will create a Camera or an Axis node depending on it's file content
Files that aren't supported by Nuke will be ignored instead of creating a Read node in error
Sequence handling:
when sequential files are dropped the user can chose between the following options:
- "as sequence" - creates one Read node per sequence found in the dropped files
- "as stills" - always creates one Read node for each frame
- "only folders as sequence" - multiple files will always be read as single frames but if the dropped files contain directories, their content will be read in as a sequence (if they contain sequential files)
- "always prompt" - the user will be asked for every sequence found in the dropped files
With these new options the user can drag a whole bunch of files into Nuke at once and control the results on the fly.
To set a default behaviour for drag&drop action an optional preference file can be set up, these are the supported preferences at the moment:
- silent mode - set your preferred drag&drop action and bypass the gui
- ask for vaperture (for cameras) - prompts for a vertical aperture if a camera chan file is dropped
- use ReadGeoPlus gizmo instead of default ReadGeo - only us if ReadGeoPlus is installed in your Nuke environment
create a file called $HOME/.nuke/drop.preference and put the following lines into it:
mode {}
va_prompt
ReadGeoPlus
The following modes are supported:
- as sequence - always import subsequent frames as a sequence (singe Read/ReadGeo node)
- as stills - always create one Read/ReadGeo node for each file
- only folders as sequence - only sequences within a folder are read into a single Read/ReadGeo node
- always prompt - always ask the user every time a sequence is found
Set 'ReadGeoPlus' to 1 to use the ReadGeoPlus gizmo - only do this if you have the gizmo installed in your plugin path.
Example:
mode {only folders as sequence}
va_prompt 1
ReadGeoPlus 1
va_prompt 1
ReadGeoPlus 1
There is an example in the zip file.
