I remember i had the same behavior on windows too. Its because i always put the
viewer into a separate window to move it onto the second monitor.
Good tip for the linux setting though, thanks.

I'm using a multi monitor setup, viewer floated to second monitor, Nuke 9.05

When hovering the mouse over the viewer and tapping A I get to see the alpha.
If I type R I get a read node. G for Grade. B for Blur. It's a little
inconsistent in how it works. If the mouse is back
I remember trying that but something about it annoyed me so I reverted. I even
tried setting both monitors to be treated as a single monitor in the nVidia
control panel but (from memory so I could fullscreen it) but that was worse.
I just tried to set it up as a single spread out window but now

just had the experience that not even A works when floating over the viewer,
in older Nuke versions though.

I would prefer having one window spread over two monitors as well. But.
On windows, the layout was never saved correctly, resulting in a slightly too
big or small window. I could never get it right. And i think there was a
problem with the start bar, that couldnt be left exposed, which i
This is why I use a single window spread over two monitors as a layout.
Unfortunately since Nuke9 it doesn't get saved properly anymore (scales to just
one screen). So first thing when launching Nuke is always resizing the window
over both monitors I hate it (even more as it worked just fine
This behaviour seems completely normal to me.
My guess is that to have this work the way you wish (which is also the
way I use it), you hace to configure your system, wether linux or
windows, to have the focus follow the mouse...
That's how I do it and it works for me.

I found that as well, but it brings the window to the FG which isn't something
you always want to do.. I would prefer it worked like OS X and X/11. I think
you can hack the registry to make it work like that but I tried it and it
didn't work for me.
I'm not sure why it works for Alpha but not

On Linux its an OS thing. You need to activate the focus window on mouse move

If you have floated the viewer, on a mac you will have to click on it but on
linux as long as you set focus follows mouse in the Xwindows settings it should
work.
Otherwise you should have been ok.

Hi Frank,
Nice to meet you mate. I'm aware of the auto label functionality and
channel indicators in Nuke but reading the channels a node is affecting on
its label or indicators isn't the same as figuring out what that node is
actually doing, hence the request for a Roto only node at that time.
Hey

You don't need to click in the viewer, just have the mouse hovering over
it.

This was requested (by myself and others) during a beta when moving from
the old Bezier node to the new RotoPaint, it was purely a request for
workflow/customization and readability reasons.
Using a RotoPaint for masks implies on more clicking around, prevents you
from having a default that works
Hey Guys,
Under the hood the two Nodes are exactly the same, they just cater to
different work flows.
As a result, the only time RotoPaint should be slower is when you have
paint/clone/smear strokes interleaved with bezier/bspine shapes.

eh? what's your metric to claim that roto paints are much faster and
smaller memory footprint.
Using Nuke 9.04 nuke.startPerformanceTimers() shows the same memory and
cpu usage.

Hey Daniel,
That's fascinating to hear, I wonder if it does relate to the bumber of
channels they use by default?
There are various things you can do to make Roto and Paint appear slower,
such as use excessive numbers of expessions or view a node downstream of a
Roto with lots of comptationally
Hi Frank,
hmm, number of channels. I tend to set Roto to use rgba instead of alpha only,
just because i am too lazy to switch the viewer to display the alpha channel.
Even though i might just need alpha downstream. Kind of going against my own
agenda of keeping everything simple as possible :)
Oh, i forgot to add that i have only worked with v7 so far, no experience with
8 or 9 yet.

Roto is just a subset of rotopaint, as users wanted a lighter tool.
If you're not painting use roto. You can always drag the shaped into a rp node
to 'promote' it.

necessarily the bottleneck. I've seen scrips where people frame blend the

Yes, i know this. Even too lazy to do that. Go
For some reason I always reach for the RotoPaint node instead of the

No idea about performance, but I do love the fact that when I use the O

Well there you go then, you only have to deal with the extra UI and that's
the difference but it is for sure processing the same data as the paint
node without the paint part. They aren't different much beyond that and
how they default load UI wise. Its just got UI and knobs turned off.
clean UI. No accidental painting. bigger memory footprint maybe?
