Thanks! I will give this a try when I get back into work.
Take it easy!

hi
the rapid way to get this working is like the example code below:
def autoColorReadNodeType(overrideNode=None):
if overrideNode == None:
this = nuke.thisNode()
else:
this = overrideNode
# get the Read node file name
thisFile = this["file"].evaluate()
# catch keyword in the filename path to set custom color
if "/depth/" in thisFile:
nodeColor = 4280356351
elif "/matte/" in thisFile:
nodeColor = 862912511
else:
nodeColor = 0
# set the Read node custom color
this["tile_color"].setValue(nodeColor)
then add this line to your init.py :
nuke.addOnCreate(autoColorReadNodeType, nodeClass = "Read")
Now each time a Read node is created and the one of your keyword
is found in the filename, it get the custom color, or 0 for no color.
let me know if it works for you ;)

Hey all... I'm wondering if there is a script that will let me color a read
node according to where the file came from.
I'm working on a 3D conversion project and the way the pipeline is set up,
all the source files (depth, original footage, mattes, etc.) are named
identically... sort of like shot_reel.########.dpx. Each of those lie in
their own particular folder akin to
../depth/foreground/version/001/shot_reel.########.dpx for example.
The problem is sometimes you can have several read nodes right next to each
other and lose track with the only option to be double click on them and see
what their source is.
I would like to have the color of the read node set itself automatically
depending on what the parent folder is. e.g red for depth, green for
original source, etc. I'm sure it can be done in python, but I haven't
really learned my scripting yet and this project won't really offer me the
time to dig into it.
I'm guessing it'd be a fairly simple script... if path contains depth,
color node red else if path contains matte color node blue. Hmm... maybe I
can find the time to figure out the syntax. Any tips would be welcome
though!
Now to get some sleep... been doing some long days of late.
Thanks in advance for any help!
