Ean, That’s great to know and I will keep that trick in my back pocket. However, in this case, the value is not a default. I actually would like to keep the name of an arbitrary Write node and restore that with the script/panel. Basically, my panel is “connected” to the Write node in the script (only by the user selecting it) and gets its values from that Write node. I was hoping to use nuke.toNode(‘WriteNodeHere’) to “reconnect” the panel and its values to the Write node when the script is reloaded. ...Well, at least that’s what I’d *like* to do… Maybe I’m missing something in your suggestion, though…? Please correct me if I’m not grasping it.
