For other knobs, like the autosave time, you could set a knob changed
callback to reset the value to what you want whenever it gets changed,
which seems to catch that prefs panel cancel resetting it. You might also
want to disable it so users don't get frustrated trying to set it to
something themselves. Try this in init.py (using 9.0v6, ):
nuke.toNode('preferences')['AutoSaveTime'].setValue(33)
nuke.toNode('preferences')['AutoSaveTime'].setEnabled(False)
def fixPrefs():
k = nuke.thisKnob()
if (k.name() == 'AutoSaveTime'):
print 'fixing AutoSaveTime'
k.setValue(33)
nuke.addKnobChanged(fixPrefs, nodeClass="Preferences")
