A write node trick I use a lot for things like making proxy sizes or just conversion putting something like this:
[ string map {.exr _p2.exr} [value [topnode].file] ] in the file parameter in the write node. It looks at the topnode (hopefully a read) and gets the value of the file parameter from it and then does a string substitution so it doesn't write over it and you can rename. This just saves writing a python function to change the string, but is fairly simplistic. On 21/11/2011, at 9:45 AM, Randy Little wrote: > This would be cool.
