 About 

The MaskBuddy is used to create 3D masks based on World Position, PRef or Normal data, for use in the mask inputs of other nodes. It has a built in preview feature, to help you place your masks easier, and natively supports up to 6 unique mask shapes within one tool

You can read the full documentation for the MaskBuddy here

Tool Preview


 Features 

Generate multiple masks shapes with one tool, and have them interact with each other to create more complex masks

Press and hold Ctrl+Alt while using the Center sampler on the preview image, to you place the masks quickly

The preview image doesn't affect the render result as long as you are using the resulting masks alpha channel

This is a suite of tools I've been working on, which is designed to help compositors of all skill levels accomplish fundamental tasks, quickly and intuitively

Yes! All the buddy tools use Nukes Ctrl+Alt sampling feature to allow the user to indirectly sample the data AOV, while simultaneously looking at the preview image. I've updated the features section above to make this more clear

Hey Maria! The folder will need to be "ToolSets" for nuke to recognize it in the default plug-in directories
