[Nuke-users] RotoPaint vs Roto

2015-03-31 Thread Simon Björk
For some reason I always reach for the RotoPaint node instead of the
regular Roto node. I'm not sure why I got into this habit, but it might be
(if I'm not mistaken) that the RotoPaint node was introduced before the
Roto node back in 6.0.

Anyway, does anyone know if there's a difference in performance/stability
when doing just regular roto? We've all had or problems with the RotoPaint
node over the last couple of versions, but I have never actually compared
the two nodes to see if one is better than the other.

No idea about performance, but I do love the fact that when I use the O
hotkey instead of the P hotkey, I can immediately start drawing a shape, as
the Bezier tool is on by default.

it works without premultipication, need to choose source as background and
replace the alpha. premult is distractive time to time.. cheerz

2015-03-31 Thread Randy Little
Well there you go then, you only have to deal with the extra UI and that's
the difference but it is for sure processing the same data as the paint
node without the paint part.  They aren't different much beyond that and
how they default load UI wise.  Its just got UI and knobs turned off.
According to the Info window.   Roto has all the setting for brush size and
every thing.
