aha - i never played with that before. I wondered why that icon didn't add another text field.
Building a 'split' read, I see you get something like this as text in the file: file "\vdefault\v/another/path/to/images-R.####.exr\vL\v/path/to/images-L.####.exr" I have my views set to L and R. This works - you could build it up like so: views = nuke.views() read = nuke.nodes.Read() file = "\vdefault\v%s\v%s\v%s" % (rightSeq, views[0], leftSeq) read['file'].fromScript(file) cheers - jrab On Apr 16, 2011, at 1:43 PM, rd-nuke-quintaindustries.com wrote: > That was the reason I believed that you can set two filenames on a file knob. > > Via the graphical user interface you can set two different value. > > First split the file knob. > Open the viewer and choose one of the view (typically left or right) > Enter a file name in the text field > Choose the other view > Enter another file name in the text field > > Now when you change the current view in the viewer and you will see the > filename changing in the same time. > > Too bad you can' t do it with python. > -- > Alexandre Parent > > John RA Benson a écrit : >> That's funny - why would it have a (non-working!) split icon next to it then >> if it didn't split?
