Re: [Nuke-python] multiple panels inside a panel problem

[John RA Benson]

Finally got around to doing something about this again: While it doesn't directly address the removeKnob bug erroneously populating the panels (bug 37959, which is still broken in nuke8), it does a better job of closing and re-opening the panels (bug 14622) to restore the panel to the correct state. Both techniques mentioned earlier fell apart in various tests, so we've just been putting up with it till now. Here's the fix (adapted from an old tip for something completely different by erik winquist): [code] import thread def _showPanel(node):     nuke.executeInMainThread(node.showControlPanel, ()) def fixRemoveKnobs(node):     """Place after node.removeKnob code to hide and then re-show panel to fix nuke 7 bug     that duplicates panels inside panels."""     node.hideControlPanel()     thread.start_new_thread(_showPanel, (node,)) [/code] cheers JRAB On 09/20/2013 12:00 AM, John Vanderbeck wrote: So just a heads up.  I found that if I put in just the slightest delay, then I can avoid the refresh issue. In the code below, a time.sleep() of just 0.01 is enough to keep the bug from happening. for i in xrange(thisNode.numKnobs() - 1, -1, -1):     knob = thisNode.knob(i)     if knob is thisNode.knob("channel_tip"):         break     thisNode.removeKnob(knob)     time.sleep(0.01)     layers = []     for channel in thisNode.channels():         layer = channel.split(".")[0]         if not layer in layers:             layers.append(layer) for layer in layers:     knob = nuke.Boolean_Knob("channel_" + layer, layer, True)     knob.setFlag(nuke.STARTLINE)     nuke.selectedNode().addKnob(knob) On Thu, Sep 19, 2013 at 9:06 AM, John Vanderbeck <john.vanderb...@primefocusworld.com> wrote: So is there any way to work around this?

I actually just reported this issue the other day. From what I can tell, it has to do with knobs being reorganized or reordered without giving Nuke a chance to redraw their widgets. As you say, it's pretty much harmless, as all the widgets are still connected to the same back-end knob, but annoying nonetheless. >>>> >>>> I'll follow up on here when I have a bug ID. >>>> >>>> -Nathan >>>> >>>> >>>> -----Original Message----- From: John RA Benson >>>> Sent: Friday, September 06, 2013 10:15 AM >>>> To: Nuke Python discussion >>>> Subject: [Nuke-python] multiple panels inside a panel problem >>>> >>>> Does anyone have a fix for this problem: >>>> >>>> set cut_paste_input [stack 0] >>>> version 7.0 v8 >>>> push $cut_paste_input >>>> NoOp { >>>> name NoOp25 >>>> selected true >>>> xpos -497 >>>> ypos -19511 >>>> addUserKnob {20 tests} >>>> addUserKnob {22 reload T "thisNode = nuke.thisNode()\nk = >>>> nuke.Text_Knob('foo', >>>> 'foo')\nthisNode.addKnob(k)\nthisNode.removeKnob(k)\n" +STARTLINE} >>>> addUserKnob {22 reloadCloseAndReopen l "reload, Close and Reopen" T >>>> "thisNode = nuke.thisNode()\nk = nuke.Text_Knob('foo', >>>> 'foo')\nthisNode.addKnob(k)\nthisNode.removeKnob(k)\n\nthisNode.hideControlPanel()\nthisNode.showControlPanel()" >>>> +STARTLINE} >>>> } >>>> >>>> Press the 'reload' button in the noop.
