I don’t think the selectNodes() method replaces the current selection, so you 
would want to add a couple of lines in there:

def bdNodes(bdNode):
    origSel = nuke.selectedNodes()
    [n.setSelected(False) for n in origSel] # Alternatively, 
nukescripts.clear_selection_recursive()
    bdNode.selectNodes()
    bdNodes = nuke.selectedNodes()
    [n.setSelected(False) for n in nuke.selectedNodes()] # Or, again, 
clear_selection_recursive
    [n.setSelected(True) for n in origSel]
    return bdNodes

in side a backdrop node, so a function like this will do what you're after:


def bdNodes( bdNode ):

origSel = nuke.selectedNodes() # STORE CURRENT SELECTION

bdNode.selectNodes() # SELECT NODES IN BACKDROP

bdNodes = nuke.selectedNodes() # STORE NODES

# RESTORE PREVIOUS SELECTION:

[ n.setSelected( False ) for n in bdNodes ]

[ n.setSelected( True ) for n in origSel ]

return bdNodes

Hi all,

command for obtaining the contents of a backdropNode?

I'm sure a group node has this feature but I'm being asked to use a 
backdropNode.

I looked around the api and did some searches. I don't see a simple way to 
query a backdropNode for the nodes contained within it. Is this possible?

I did some a post from a few years ago where someone just took the bounding box 
of the backdrop node and queried every node if it was within the location.

Just looking to see if there was a newer better method.
