I found that as well, but it brings the window to the FG which isn't something 
you always want to do.. I would prefer it worked like OS X and X/11. I think 
you can hack the registry to make it work like that but I tried it and it 
didn't work for me.

I'm not sure why it works for Alpha but not the other channels. Perhaps because 
they have bindings already. Except for Luma though...

Foundry?

This behaviour seems completely normal to me.

My guess is that to have this work the way you wish (which is also the way I 
use it), you hace to configure your system, wether linux or windows, to have 
the focus follow the mouse...

That's how I do it and it works for me.

Hm, thats strange behavior Charles. I don't have Nuke9 , so i cannot check. I 
just had the experience that not even A works  when floating over the viewer, 
in older Nuke versions though.

I'm using a multi monitor setup, viewer floated to second monitor, Nuke 9.05 
and Windows 7.

When hovering the mouse over the viewer and tapping A I get to see the alpha. 
If I type R I get a read node. G for Grade. B for Blur. It's a little 
inconsistent in how it works. If the mouse is back over the DAG (without 
clicking anything) and I type A nothing happens.

I would prefer if the mouse is over the viewer and I type R G B A Y or M I get 
to view the appropriate channel. Not just the Alpha.

I remember i had the same behavior on windows too. Its because i always put the 
viewer into a separate window to move it onto the second monitor.
Good tip for the linux setting though, thanks.

Just a thought...
If you have floated the viewer, on a mac you will have to click on it but on 
linux as long as you set focus follows mouse in the Xwindows settings it should 
work.
Otherwise you should have been ok.

Somehow that never worked for me. Maybe its an OS thing? I was working on Linux 
at that time.
