Compatible Nuke versions: 8.0 or later

Compatibility: Mac, Windows

Alternative way of organizing your dag with images. Create an image thumbnail of the selected node. Just select a node and run the script (Menubar->Scripts->create thumbnail) or press the shortcut CTRL+ALT+T (win) | CMD+ALT+T (mac). The selected node will be rendered for the current frame into a folder sitting next to your nuke script. The rendered image will then be imported into your nuke script as a sticky note.

In the thumbnail.py you'll find two editable variables:

imageSize: this will be the thumbnail size (in precentage, 1 is 100%) compared to the original image. Default: 0.15

fileType: thumbnail will be saved with this image format. Default .jpg

 

instalation:

put the thumbnails folder in your nuke home directory. Inside your init.py add this line:

nuke.pluginAddPath('thumbnail')
