Section - Read from Write
=========================
The 'Read from Write' section lets you assign a custom shortcut to create a
Read/DeepRead/ReadGeo from your selected Write/DeepWrite/WriteGeo node. As
mentioned previously, any custom shortcut takes effect immediately, so a
restart of Nuke won't be required.

A 'Read from Write' button is also available in the
`Output Settings Window <output_settings_window.html>`_.

**Relative paths:** Here you can decide how to handle paths for the created
Read/DeepRead/ReadGeo node when the selected Write/DeepWrite/WriteGeo node
contains a relative path. Choose 'Keep relative' to keep referencing a relative
path in your Read/DeepRead/ReadGeo node. Choose 'Expand to absolute' to expand
the path to an absolute path.
