The smartRender window

To open the smartRender window navigate to NUKE’s menubar and choose cragl->smartRender->render. The shortcut is cmd + R (mac) and ctrl + R (linux + windows).

The smartRender main window contains three sections:

  • The presets section

  • The output section

  • The log section

To navigate between the different sections you can use the tabs at the top left to enter the presets- and the output section and the job history button at the top right to enter the log section. You can also press the L-key to toggle the job history. The state of the currently selected tab from the left will be saved even after closing the smartRender window, exiting NUKE and shutting down your computer.
