I see what you mean.
You could create a Python Knob and change the label hardcoded or add another knob providing more info you would need.
You could use a setup like this

set cut_paste_input [stack 0]
version 10.0 v4
push $cut_paste_input
Blur {
 name Blur1
 selected true
 xpos 124
 ypos -49
 addUserKnob {20 User}
 addUserKnob {1 input l "use me"}
 input "this is just for test purposes"
addUserKnob {22 label l "press me" T "nuke.thisNode()\['test'].setValue(nuke.thisNode()\['input'].value())" +STARTLINE}
 addUserKnob {26 test l "" +STARTLINE T metadata}
}

Maybe there is a prettier solution, but at least it is a solution.

Somehow nothing get's evaluated as TCL in the body of the text of the Static Text Knob.
It would be great if you have an example that works.

    Im not the brightest bulb when tcl is brought into play, but you
    could add a text knob parse the expression and reference that value.

    Betreff: [Nuke-users] passing metadata into a static text knob


    Hi

    Is there a way to pass metadata into a static text knob?
    for instance
    [metadata input/width]
    will be replaced with the value found in the input node metadata
    if i type it in a text node but
    it won't be evaluated into a static text knob

    How do i force the evaluation of the [metadata key] expression for
    a static text?

    Thank you for the help

    Cheers
