Loading Nuke in a Windows env Dec. 7, 2022, 11:55 p.m.

I have little to no experience in Windows. The current studio I'm at uses a .bat file to launch Nuke with their custom gizmo's and whatnot. How would I go about adding that .bat file as the $PDG_NUKEPY variable? I tried to copy and paste their shortcut but it fails. Their shortcut launches cmd.exe and then runs the .bat file. I tried escaping the \ and doing w quotes and without.
It needs the launch variables to set up their color workflow as well so it's needed. Am I stuck?
Thanks

Interesting. Well for now I've just left it outside the HDA.
thanks!

Default state for attribpaint inside HDA Nov. 15, 2022, 11:28 a.m.

Hi all,
I wanted to set up an hda with a attrib paint inside and have the default state be the brush paint tool. I imported the block into the hda and set "sidefx_attribpaint" as the "default state" in the HDA but I get a python error back:
