You're pretty much out of luck there. Nuke more or less forces all user knobs to be added after a user-created Tab_Knob.

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^) Thanks, Rich On Oct 9, 2014, at 11:25 PM, Nathan Rusch <nathan_ru...@hotmail.com> wrote: There isn't a formal way of doing this right now. Nuke's whole UI is built in Qt, which is written in C++; there isn't really a way of going from Nuke's Python API types to base PySide types (or even really getting at a lot of the UI elements in an easy way). If you were patient enough, you could walk your way through the whole application and do just about anything with/to it, but I wouldn't wish that on anyone. You might be able to pull off what you're trying to do that way, but I haven't ever tried. You could do a sort of poor impression of it by creating a bunch of Link_Knob instances pointing at all the knobs on your node, but it would likely have some quirks. It would be cool if nodes had a method to return the top-level widget of their control panel as a PySide QWidget though... -Nathan From: Richard Bobo Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2014 7:35 PM To: Nuke Python discussion Subject: [Nuke-python] Can a Nuke node be embedded in a PythonPanel...? Hi, Maybe a bit of a odd question but, has anyone embedded a nuke node control panel in a custom PythonPanel? I have some understanding from explanations by Nathan that PythonPanels are built on PySide QtWidgets. I’m assuming that Nuke’s control panels are Qt-based, too. So, it *seems* like it could be possible. But, maybe not… My other option, I guess, would be to add custom knobs to a nuke node control panel, since that is supported. Anyway, I was wondering if it’s ever been done the other way around…?
