fxT_compQC v1.2
Toolset/group to help Tech QC your comp and help assist you in passing the tech QC stage of a compositing shot.
This tool has been production tested over many high end productions. Hopefully this tool can assist you with the tech phase of your shots as well.
Keep in mind, this tool does not fix any QC issues, it simply visualizes various QC problems that are hard to see without some form of QC process being applied to your comp. This assists you in seeing the tech problems before your supervisor or lead points it out.
Dropdown to check QC for:
- viewing comp in Log colorspace
- nan/inf pixels
- highpass filter for comp
- highpass filter for plate
- clipping pixels
- negative values
- grain check
- comp difference with plate
This tool has a dropdown with QC modes, and option to shuffle the channels to compare between various QC-modes. It also includes a button to check for missing frames, and a checkbox to flop the comp.

fxT_cloneViaExpressions v1.3
Alternative to the clone node, using expression instead to link all visible knobs accept knobs that are unsafe to link or that otherwise should not be linked. Make clones great again!
Features:
- remove the original clone and replace it with this tool (same placement in the Edit Menu and same shortcuts)
- script allows you to clone and declone, just like the native clone feature
- takes account for index on color knobs (nodes with multiValue knobs). This is restored to singleValue/original state of node when decloning
- link all visible knobs, it does not link hidden knobs, callback knobs or any other knobs that should not be linked
- Links all selected nodes (you can select multiple nodes and link them at the same time)
- won't let you link nodes that are considered unsafe to link, or groups (similar to the native nuke clone feature)
- linking of curve-knobs and text knobs. These are normally not possible to link, so text knobs are using TCL value and curve-knobs is efficently managed with callbacks (no slowness or callbacks after node is deCloned or deleted as its efficently managed to take accout for user change of the nodes).
- won't link the disable knob (toggling the disable knob by pressing 'd' will set animation on the knob if it's linked so its therefore not linkable by this tool). (if you'd like to link the disable knob, just remove it from the end of the ignoreKnobs-list

fxT_precompController v1.3
Toolset/python tool to easily keep track of precomps in large nuke scripts. Comes with a custom switch and a global control node to contol all precomp-switches in a scipt.
No auto update, you have to press the update button - this to keep your nuke-script efficient. No installation needed. Just put the nukescript files directly into your ToolSet folder inside your .nuke folder.

fxT_guiFinder v2.1
Toolset/python tool to deal with all $gui expressions in a nuke script (works on root and inside groups). the tool lets you bake the inverted expressions (to make sure the comp-tree looks exactly the same as the render from the renderfarm). Checks for deleted nodes, existing expressions etc. before storing or restoring knob's $gui expressions. If expressions exist, user will get the option to replace or skip. The tool works on index level for knobs.

fxT_chromaticAberration v3.1
This is a cromatic aberration gizmo to mimic the art effects produced by certain lenses.
This gizmo gives you control over each channel separately (scaling of R,G,B),
and many other global and induvidual options for matching the plate's aberration.

fxT_rotoPaintMatte v1.0
This tool converts selected RotoPaint nodes to mattes by creating a duplicate of the selected nodes and then it loops through the paint-layers to change the source to color or bg1 based on what layer-type it it. The tool was created to make the creation of DI-mattes or other type of mattes easier if the comp included RotoPaint nodes that needed to be part of the matte. A more accurate alternative to difference mattes when dealing with paint stokes.

fxT_revealInFolder v2.2
This script loops through all selected nodes and checks if the node has a file knob. If a file knob is present, the path will be opened in the OS file manager/browser. The user will be notified if nothing is selected or if the user does not select any nodes that have an existing file-path. If a selected node has a nonexistent path, this will be printed in the script editor, and the script will continue to process the next selected node. All paths are tested for an existing file. However, due to rendered files being frequently opened and deleted, write nodes only test for an existing directory.

fxT_Keyer v1.5
Nukes default keyer with added functionality of masking off the key and keying on different
colorspaces for a better keying result.
'Log' is the default which in most cases give you more detail than the default Keyer gives you. The colorspace dropdown lets you choose between different colorspaces, or choose a custom colorspace which is basicly all colorspaces available in the colorspace node.
Use 'Linear' colorspace to have the node act the same way as Nuke's default Keyer.

fxT_shareNodes v1.7
Nuke Pane (python panel) for sharing nodes between Nuke users on the same network.
Instead of sending an email with nodes to another Nuke user, this script will make it possible to share nodes from inside Nuke
to other users on the same network.
Multiple users allowed

fxT_disableNodes v2.2
DisableNodes helps speed up your compositing workflow by disabling heavy nodes. You can select nodes you choose to disable, either by class or manually, and then link them together and control the on/off switch with the click of a button. You can also control the Scanline sample values in your Nuke script.

fxT_edgeMatte v2.1
This tool creates an edge matte based on the alpha input.
Drag the sliders to grow/shrink the edge matte and blur the edges as needed.
The gizmo procedurally creates an edge matte from any alpha you feed into it.
It can be used for grading edges or any other compositing task where you need to alter the edge of a matte.
Full control over the size of the edge matte (subpixel level controls)
Plate input for viewing the matte over an input that also has RGB channels
Mask input, works with all formats

fxT_matteQC v2.6
This tool is intended to help check roto work (or any kind of matte).
nput the matte and scan/bg/ect. to the gizmo, and then start analyzing your matte accuracy.
This tool has 5 modes: red, green, and blue overlay, stencil from plate, and premult against bg (grey, checkerboard, custom color).
Built in mask-alpha-check, so the node won't error if there is no alpha
Node works with all formats (input format and aspect ratio is used)
