That's one of the exact reasons why we want to avoid them. Let's say
you
work on a shot, finalise it, ship the project out and forget about it.
A
few month go by, and you add stuff in your gizmos, make them more
efficient, more useful. Suddenly you get a request by a client to do a
minor tweak on that shot you did a year ago and forgot about. You
reload
the archive, open the script and... It looks nothing like the original
shot, because all your gizmos now produce different results.
Sure you could convert all gizmos to group before archiving your
project,
but it can be a big amount of work. Also this could happen in an
ongoing
production, although most places will be smart enough to not make a
massive
change in a gizmo in a middle of production.

Another advantage of gizmos is that you can add knobs and make
changes the
way it is setup, and it will be reInitialized everytime you load a
script
with the gizmo.
A Group is stored within a nuke file and wont update if you change
the
"master".
Is that the same with toolsets ?! (Have not tried yet...)

It would be nice to have an option to do that without having to make
a
gizmo. At work we decided to try to go gizmo free, using toolsets
only, for
improved compatibility both internally and externally.
The only single thing I miss from gizmos is the ability to save
default
values.
Is there a way to do that?

Charles,
Yeah, that’s what was tripping me up. I was working on the toolset
as a
Group. Kind of annoying that it you have to save it as a Gizmo to
set the
default reset values… (8^\ But, at least I know now.

What about groups? We don't use gizmos here for a variety of
reasons, but
rather groups. It seems that groups always default back to the
knob's
default.

Hey Rich -
It should reset to whatever value the knob was set to when you
initially
created the gizmo. You can edit the value saved in the .gizmo file
in a
text editor or in nuke convert back to a group, set the knob to the
default
value you want, and then save the gizmo again.
For instance, if I've got this at the head of the gizmo file:
Gizmo {
amount 0.1
}
It should reset to 0.1. Just change that to another value, save the
file,
and that's the new default.
Be careful about this changing the behavior of existing scripts. If
you
have scripts using that gizmo that didn't set the knob different
from
default, it isn't saved in the nuke script. When those scripts
reload after
you change the default, they'l get the new value. If you want that,
super!
If not, save a new version of the gizmo so old scripts can still
pick up
the original and render the same.

Hi,
Is there a way to set the default “reset” value for a knob that you
have
added to a menu?
For instance, in a gizmo, I have added a Floating Point Slider
knob.
When the user does a CNTRL-click (or CMD-click) on the slider, I
would like
it to reset to 1.0 — not 0.0.
Can it be easily done…?
Thanks,
Rich
