Prevent Nuke from using the native OS toolbar (like on macOS) and use Nuke's Qt toolbar instead. This will allow the user to work properly in fullscreen mode on a Mac without losing/hiding the menubar. Besides that the toolbar will behave like any other part of the interface.

W_dontUseNativeMenuBar



Prevent Nuke from using the native OS toolbar (like on macOS) and use Nuke's Qt toolbar instead.

This will take the top toolbar and make it part of the interface (like on Windows and most Linux distros).

This will allow the user to work properly in fullscreen mode on a Mac without losing/hiding the menubar. Besides that the toolbar will behave like any other part of the interface (in terms of icons and formatting etc).

 




Add the following to your menu.py:

import W_dontUseNativeMenuBar
W_dontUseNativeMenuBar.init()

Makes me wonder, is it possible to make the main window Frameless as in setWindowFlags( Qt::FramelessWi ndowHint ?

Hi Sven,

I thought about that, but I figured that would also take away the minimize/maximi ze/close buttons, and the option to resize the window.

It's pretty much what the full screen mode is.

Cheers

Hi Wouter! Great little add-on. Use on my macbook all the time. Any chance you could update it for Nuke 12?

Hey Ewoud!

Sorry for the late reply, didn't seem to have gotten a notification for your comment...

Glad you liked it! What doesn't work about it for you? I'm currently using it on Nuke12 without problems.

Cheers

Hi Wouter!

It gives me a popup error: "/.nuke/menu.py : error interpreting that plugin"

Ah, that's the generic "Something is wrong" error. Unfortunately, for whatever reason; Foundry has decided to no longer show the traceback to the actually error on launch... (unless you launch from a terminal)

Could you import the tool from the script editor and reply with the error message?

So in the nuke scripteditor:

import W_dontUseNativeMenuBar
W_dontUseNativeMenuBar.init()

Running it from the script editor funnily enough just works...
