A smarter GoTo command

Compatible Nuke versions: 5.0 or later

Compatibility: Linux, Mac, Windows

goToPlus is a replacement for Nuke's standard GoTo command that gives you the ability to enter simple math expressions to go to the frame you need. For those familiar with Discreet* systems this isn't new and it something silly that Nuke misses.

It will allow you to enter enter things like:

  • *2
    To go to the frame that is the double of the current frame
  • +12 or -12
    To  move 12 frames from where you currently are

  •  12+12
    To go to frame 24

So basically when the command starts with a math operator (+, -, /, *) it will use the current frame value "times" the command you've entered. If the command starts with a number it will ignore the current frame and simply evaluate and go to the frame resulting from the command you've entenred.

To install it just re-assign the standard goTo.py from the nukescripts to this one by adding the following lines to your menu.py
