Compatible Nuke versions: 10.5 or later
Compatibility: Windows
While working on a recent project I found I needed a tool to help me align/distribute nodes in the nodegraph, so I made this quick utility for just that. Featuring a very light-weight and minimalistic design, assign it to a keyboard shortcut and the rest is pretty self-explanatory. Buttons on the left of the divider are for alignment, buttons on the right are for distribution.
Compatible with Nuke 11. For earlier versions of nuke use v1.0 (which is otherwise the same).
To install copy the python file and icons folder into your .nuke directory and add the following lines to your menu.py file:
import ST_AlignAndDistributeNodes
new_menu = nuke.menu('Nuke').addMenu('probably replace this with something else')
new_menu.addCommand('Align nodes', 'show_align_ui()', 'ctrl+shift+a')
Modify the above line to whatever shortcut you need, I like ctrl+shift+a because it is fast and easy.
Suggestions are welcome!
