2 Setting a Script’s Global

Parameters

This chapter covers how to set the global parameters

within each script, tailoring your script’s properties to fit

your needs.

About Global Parameters

When you create a new script, you should customize its global parameters before

starting work on your composite. The Globals tab contains parameters that are

commonly found in the Project Properties window of other applications. These

parameters include a script’s time range, default frame width and height, aspect ratio,

proxy settings, global motion-blur controls, bit depth, field rendering settings, and

various ways to customize Shake’s controls.

The global parameters also contain a group of guiControl parameters that let you

customize how Shake works. Using the guiControl parameters, you can specify whether

thumbnails are exposed, how many threads Shake uses on multi-processing

computers, the colors used by shapes and noodles, and the sensitivity of shape

controls in the Viewer.

To access the global parameters, do one of the following:

Click the Globals tab.

Double-click an empty area in the Node View.

Setting Global Variables From the Command Line

Many of the parameters described in this chapter can be set in the command line at

the time you launch Shake, so you don’t have to reset them each time you write out a

script. For example, your timeRange may be 1-10, but you can modify that when you

render on the command line with the -t option:

shake -exec my_script -t 1-240

1 2 ... 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 ... 104 105
