Yep, a more standard usage of setFlag is something like: n = nuke.selectedNode() n['size'].setFlag(nuke.READ_ONLY | nuke.STARTLINE)
knob.setFlag(0) clears all the flags and happens to close the group - but presumably there should be something like nuke.COLLAPSED_GROUP to do this explicitly.. but I couldn't find anything in the docs (nor in Knobs.h) On 14/10/14 12:14, Nathan Rusch wrote: > John: Yeah, that's pretty much it.
