Make Write from Read

Changes in version1.2

Proper handling of paths. Was hardcoded to work on windows. Now platform independent.

This method will assist automated creation of Write-nodes, using the filename of upstream Read-nodes.

Typical scenario:

1. Drop in a bunch of still images.

2. Foreach image add some, for example, Grade-nodes and fix a good look.

3. Now select all grade-nodes and run this script.

4. The script will look for an upstream Read-node and use that filename   for creation of write nodes. The panel that presents itself will allow you to modify that filename or path.

Usage:

import makewritefromread

# Add extra Tools menu

mymenubar=nuke.menu("Nuke")

m=mymenubar.addMenu("Tools")

# Create Tools menu for right click menu:

nodetoolbar = nuke.menu("Nodes")

t=nodetoolbar.addMenu("Tools")

m.addCommand("Make Write from Read...", 'makewritefromread.make_write_from_read()', '')

t.addCommand("Make Write from Read...", 'makewritefromread.make_write_from_read()', '')
