Knob Editor

Features

Dynamic UI

The selected Nuke knob will be sampled and used in the UI to tweak the value.

Restrict to a specific node class

The "Node Class" can be set to edit only the selected nodes matching this class. It also acts as a filter for the "Knob" dropdown.

Expression Mode

Toggling "Expression mode" will replace "Value" with a blank input. It can be used to mathematically modify the value in each node or add prefixes and suffixes.

Installation

Unpack the folder and add it to Nukes plugin path.

Usage

After installation the Knob Editor can be opened through the menu "Edit - Edit knob on multible nodes" or with the shortcut "Ctrl+E" (to change that edit the menu.py).

Select one or more nodes and open Knob Editor.

Specify which node class you want to affect (default is all).

Select the knob you want to edit on the selected nodes (knobs are displayed in alphabetical order).

Adjust the knob (since the default knob is just the first one in the list it may say [Unlinked LinkKnob]. Just change it to any knob that is actually visible on the node).

Hit OK or Cancel to apply the value to all selected nodes or cancel the operation.

Expression Mode

Enable "Expression mode".

The current value in all selected nodes can be modified using <value>.

For numbers: <value>*2

For strings: <value>_02
