Nathan, Thanks for the reply! So, I am going with plan B, which is to add my custom knobs and controls to a nuke control panel… Much simpler. One question I have, though... I know how to create a new tab and call it whatever I want (instead of the “User” default name) and add my knobs there. But, what I *really* would like to do is add my custom knobs to one of the existing tabs. In this case, I’m using a Write node control panel, so I’d ideally want to add the controls at the bottom of the “Write” tab. How do I select that tab…? I know there’s a hotkey in Nuke for selecting the next tab in a control panel, so I’m guessing there has to be a command or knob flag that will do that, right? 8^)
