Class Knob

object --+
         |
        nuke.Knob
Known Subclasses:

A modifiable control that appears (unless hidden) in the panel for a node. This is a base class that specific knob types inherit from.

Knobs can be animated, have expressions, be disabled or hidden and more.

Method Details [hide private]

Class(self)

 
Returns: Class name
Class name.

__init__(...)
(Constructor)

 

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature

Overrides: object.__init__

__new__(T, S, ...)

 
Returns: a new object with type S, a subtype of T
Overrides: object.__new__

clearAnimated(...)

 

Clear animation for channel 'c'. Return True if successful.

clearFlag(self, f)

 

Clear flag.

Parameters:
  • f - Flag.
Returns: None
None.

critical(self, message)

 
Parameters:
  • message - message to put the knob in error, and do a popup.
Returns: None
None.

debug(self, message)

 
Parameters:
  • message - message to put out to the error console, attached to the knob, if the verbosity level is set high enough.
Returns: None
None.

enabled(self)

 
Returns: Boolean
True if the knob is enabled, False if it's disabled.

error(self, message)

 
Parameters:
  • message - message to put the knob in error.
Returns: None
None.

fullyQualifiedName(self, channel=-1)

 

Returns the fully-qualified name of the knob within the node. This can be useful for expression linking.

Parameters:
  • channel - Optional parameter, specifies the channel number of the sub-knob (for example, channels of 0 and 1 would refer to the x and y of a XY_Knob respectively), leave blank or set to -1 to get the qualified name of the knob only.
Returns: string
The string of the qualified knob or sub-knob, which can be used directly in expression links.

getFlag(self, f)

 

Returns whether the input flag is set.

Parameters:
  • f - Flag.
Returns: Bool
True if set, False otherwise.

getKeyList(...)

 

Get all unique keys on the knob. Returns list.

hasExpression(self, index=-1)

 

Return True if animation at index 'index' has an expression.

Parameters:
  • index - Optional index parameter. Defaults to -1 if not specified. This can be specified as a keyword parameter if desired.
Returns: bool
True if has expression, False otherwise.

label(self)

 
Returns: label
label.

name(self)

 
Returns: name
name.

node(self)

 

Return the node that this knob belongs to. If the node has been cloned, we'll always return a reference to the original.

Returns: nuke.Node
The node which owns this knob, or None if the knob has no owner yet.

removeKey(...)

 

Remove key for channel 'c'. Return True if successful.

removeKeyAt(...)

 

Remove key at time 't' for channel 'c'. Return True if successful.

setEnabled(self, enabled)

 

Enable or disable the knob.

Parameters:
  • enabled - True to enable the knob, False to disable it.
Returns: None

setExpression(self, expression, channel=-1, view=None)

 

Set the expression for a knob. You can optionally specify a channel to set the expression for.

Parameters:
  • expression - The new expression for the knob. This should be a string.
  • channel - Optional parameter, specifying the channel to set the expression for. This should be an integer.
  • view - Optional view parameter. Without, this command will set the expression for the current view theinterface is displaying. Can be the name of the view or the index.
Returns: bool
True if successful, False if not.

setFlag(self, f)

 

Logical OR of the argument and existing knob flags.

Parameters:
  • f - Flag.
Returns: None
None.

setLabel(self, s)

 
Parameters:
  • s - New label.
Returns: None
None.

setName(self, s)

 
Parameters:
  • s - New name.
Returns: None
None.

setTooltip(self, s)

 
Parameters:
  • s - New tooltip.
Returns: None
None.

setValue(self, val, chan)

 

Sets the value 'val' at channel 'chan'.

Returns: bool
True if successful, False if not.

setValueAt(self, val, time, chan)

 

Sets the value 'val' at channel 'chan' for time 'time'.

Returns: bool
True if successful, False if not.

setVisible(self, visible)

 

Show or hide the knob.

Parameters:
  • visible - True to show the knob, False to hide it.
Returns: None

toScript(quote, context=current)

 

Return the value of the knob in script syntax. Pass True for quote to return results quoted in {}. Pass None for context to get results for all views and key times (as stored in a .nk file).

Returns: string

tooltip(self)

 
Returns: tooltip
tooltip.

visible(self)

 
Returns: Boolean
True if the knob is visible, False if it's hidden.

warning(self, message)

 
Parameters:
  • message - message to put a warning on the knob.
Returns: None
None.
