What’s new?¶
Version 2.12¶
- Update to nuke-15
Version 2.11¶
- Fix: Reveal in explorer on Windows launches documents folder
- Configure to be always on top. Requires a restart of smartRecents to take effect.
Version 2.10¶
Implement table history view, incl. thumbnails and comments¶
We introduced the table history view. This view offers some more functionality compared to our former list view:
The table history view offers:
- Adjustable thumbnails that are resizable to your needs
- Information about last modify date
- Comments to keep track of what has been done and what needs to be done
By the way: Shot thumbnails taken via smartRecents work in smartLib as well and vice versa.
The table history mode is the new default viewing mode. In the settings section you can switch back to the former list view if you need to:
Tip
smartRecents’ thumbnails are compatible with the thumbnails in smartLib.
If a shot contains a .docs folder around your working file as we use in
smartLib then a screenshot will be exported into that directory. If it does
not exist we export a thumbnail in
~/cragl/smartRecents/thumbs/<name of working file>.jpg. In order to
get information where each thumbnail is loaded from set the environment
variable CRAGL_SMARTRECENTS_SHOW_THUMBNAIL_PATHS to 'True' prior to
launching Nuke. The thumbnail paths get then logged in your terminal when
launching smartRecents
Add right click menu for items¶
You can now right click any working file in smartRecents and execute several commands for it:
- Open: Open the seleccted working file. Choose between opening it or appending its nodes into the root of the current working file or importing it as a collapsed Group node.
- Reveal: Click to reveal the working file in your explorer.
- Version History: Open or insert previous working files.
- Remove from list: Remove the working file from smartRecents. It stays untouched on disk and is just removed from the working file list.
Set thumbnail preview from selected node / take screenshot using snipping tool¶
Select a node and set a thumbnail for the current shot by using the current node selection or by take a screenshot using a snipping tool.
Append as Group¶
We added a new insertion mode ‘Append as Group’. This mode will import the selected working file as a collapsed Group node into the current working file. This is particularly useful if you want to quickly bring in some node setups from another shot or a previous working file version.
Version 2.9¶
- Add studio model and various style changes
Search license files in all CRAGL_LICENSE_ROOTS from environment¶
Add absolute paths of directories to the environment variable
CRAGL_LICENSE_ROOTS. All cragl products will search for license files in
these root directories as well. Concatenate multiple paths by semicolon ;
under Windows and colon : under Linux/MacOS.
Show only working files that exist on disk¶
The smartRecents window shows now only working files that actually exist on disk.
Add browsing docs, changelog and support¶
The smartRecents window contains now an additional ‘Help’ button. Clicking it give you access to the following functionality:
Version 2.6¶
Send email to license author when machine installs license¶
You as a license owner will now receive an email when a new machine uses your license. This is just another layer of security to ensure your licenses get only used by you and no one else. In case you own a site license, you can always white- and black list any machines and decide yourself which machines to allow / disallow usage of your licenses.
