This script simplifies the use of Shuffle2 nodes in Nuke by automatically displaying connections directly in the Node Graph.
Here's how it works:

Features

1. Single Click:

   • By pressing the V key or clicking once on a Shuffle node, a concise label shows the incoming and outgoing connections, providing a quick and clear overview.

2. Double Click or Double 'V':

   • By double-clicking or pressing V twice, the label expands to provide a detailed breakdown of all connections, perfect for analyzing complex setups.

3. Dynamic Updates:

   • Labels automatically update whenever the node's settings change, ensuring the displayed information is always accurate and up-to-date.
     
     
     
     

Installation

1. Download: Extract the shuffle_auto.zip archive.
2. Setup:
   • Place the shuffle.py file in a plugins folder (create it in ~/.nuke if it doesn't already exist).
3. Modify the menu.py File:
   • Add the following lines to ~/.nuke/menu.py:
     

     import os
     import nuke
     import sys

     sys.path.append(os.path.expanduser('~/.nuke/plugins'))

     import shuffle

     dd_tools_menu = nuke.menu('Nuke').addMenu('DD Tools')
     dd_tools_menu.addCommand('Shuffle auto', 'shuffle.run()', 'v')
