Note: Nuke 12.1 introduced a new and improved Shuffle2 node, which makes Shuffle and ShuffleCopy obsolete. Shuffle and ShuffleCopy are still available for backward compatibility if you press X in the Node Graph and enter Shuffle or ShuffleCopy.
Shuffle lets you:
• rearrange up to 8 channels from a single image (B input). For example, you can use it to swap rgba.red for rgba.green, and vice versa,
• rearrange channels between two separate nodes (A and B input), like a foreground and background branch,
• replace a channel with black (removing the alpha channel, for example) or with white (making the alpha solid, for example),
• create new channels.
To simply copy a channel from one data stream into another, see Copy.
