Frank, Michael
Thank you for your reply, yes I tried it, and it kind of does the trick.
If I use Frank's comp and add DeepSample to DeepMerge1 and sample any point of 
the image, I still get only 2 samples. :-) I wish I can manipulate it and add 
more. I tried it with multiple cards in different depths, but it is heavy and 
not that nice.

It would actually be nice to have a "thickness" knob in the DeepFromImage node 
that does this.
For now using the expression is the only way I believe (like Michael suggested):

set cut_paste_input [stack 0]
version 7.0 v5
push $cut_paste_input
Camera2 {
translate {0 0 1.480000019}
name Camera1
selected true

ypos -593
}
set Ne0cf8c00 [stack 0]
Dot {

selected true
xpos -85
ypos -314
}
push $Ne0cf8c00
CheckerBoard2 {

ypos -692
}
Card3D {

Have you tried doing something like adding an expression to deep.back in a 
DeepExpression node?
Like :
deep.front + <offset>

My question to this subject is actually different... What about "Sample"? 
Currently, if I take any ScanlineRender and attach DeepFromImage, it creates 
only one sample. Is there any way to spread it in the space into multiply 
samples? Any secret Expressions or smart tool you can share? Converting Nuke's 
particles into Deep is fun, especially integrating with Maya Deep Renders, but 
they are still only one sample deep. Any workarounds?

Subject: Re: [Nuke-users] RE: Nuke card -> deep

Yes, it's definitely going to be handy to have deep output (soon, I hear). I'm 
generating deep holdout geometry right now so I can hold out the cg from the 
plate. I'm projecting roto shapes on to many bits of overlapping geo (not 
cards) and each one is getting its own ScanlineRender.

DeepFromImage works fine as long as you don't have occluding objects (or need 
to get in between self-occluding edges of a single object), which is why I'm 
gagging to see deep output from the ScanlineRender node myself (last year Jon 
said we'd get it in March, any ETA??).

Last time I had to do a bunch of particle sprites to combine with deep renders, 
I had to divvy up my Nuke scene into blocks of geo/particles that did not 
overlap in depth, render them, DeepFromImage them, DeepMerge them all together, 
then I was ready to roll. It worked great, just wasn't as straight forward as I 
had liked.

We are getting there though...

Cheers,

Ha, we both made the mistake of calling it DeepToImage (of course I meant 
DeepFromImage...)

Perfect!

I wasn't expecting a scanline renderer into a deep from image to work like that 
but that's great.

not deepToImage, i mean deepFromImage

Subject: RE: Nuke card -> deep

Yes, kind of. (it has limitation like sample 1 only)
Create card, Scanlinerender with your camera. Normal 3D setup. Right after 
scanlinerender place deepToImage. This will convert your 3D render into Deep. 
The deep will be matched to your Maya renders.
Let me know if you have questions.
Cheers,
Lev

Subject: Nuke card -> deep

Hi,

Is it possible to place deep planes (ie, for holdout roto) using a standard 
nuke card rather than the deepToImage and DeepTransform nodes? As far as I can 
see there's no way to rotate the image using deepTransform. Similarly it would 
be really useful to be able to displace or bend the card to give it some depth.

I can't seem to find much in the internet about deep workflows...

Cheers
AH
