Hmm. 26 should be static Text knob. Looks like in the pasted Text there is the Label Missing. Just put something between "", i guess.
The backslashes look weird too me. Maybe removing them might work. Not in Front of nuke anymore so i can Test Tomorrow.
You are on 10.0v4?

Cheers

Thanks Igor but it does not work. I might be missing something cause the "press me" knob is invisible, and frankly I don't even know what type of knob is the 26th, there are just 24 on my menu. I'm only getting 2 controls.
Cheers

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
