how to find back the "Bezier" and "Paint" node of old version in Nuke 6?

just the .nuke folder? or every hidden folder?

this doesnt make sense haha...if they're hidden folders they wouldn't show up...

anyyyyyhoooooooo

No. Just because a folder has a dot in the name doesn't automatically designate it as hidden. This is a separate flag entirely (and thankfully so, as hiding something based on a parameter as arbitrary as the name would be juvenile and incredibly frustrating in many cases).

It makes plenty of sense when the OS doesn't make decisions about the visibility of a folder based on its name... The .nuke folder is not hidden on Windows.

I didn't also have a problem finding the .nuke folder on my linux machine.

This is all because of Mac overprotectivness that makes me angry with this system.

No, this is standard filesystem rules. Any file or folder that starts with a "." is hidden. This is true under Linux, Windows, Osx and any other unix.

Actually yes it is hidden by default. Most power users though go into the windows explorer settings and turn on "show hidden files and folders".

Er... I hate to continue to disagree with you, but no Windows version I've ever installed Nuke on has resulted in a hidden .nuke folder. And yes, I know what you're trying to say, but the .nuke folder simply isn't hidden. I have other dot-prefixed folders as well that do not auto-hide. The folder naming convention DOES NOT dictate the visibility state on Windows.

Sorry but same goes on linux. I work with nuke on two linux stations and two mac and only on mac it is hidden by default.

Thats right I'm mixing stuff up, it only hides it over a samba or nfs share (the flag is usually set by default in your smb.conf).

Now this I know for a fact that "." files under all unix based operating systems are hidden by default. I used to be a unix sysadmin under Irix and early linux. Though your sysadmin or linux distribution could probably for some reason(no idea why) make them unhidden by default. KDE/Gnome has a "show hidden files" and you could easily alias a "ls" command in the shell as "ls -la" so it shows all hidden files.

Hi, on mac os x make an alias to the .dot folder, then in the Terminal rename it to something like dotNuke ("mv .nuke\ alias dotNuke"), then you can always access your .nuke folder. Also to turn on and off all hidden files on os X use Tinkertool or Cocktail.

I'm press "x", leave tcl checked and wrote Bezier or Paint

Exactly. And worths noting that Windows wise the .nuke folder is set on the wrong place, it should be inside the %AppData% and not on the user root.

But personally I like it better that way

I've got other apps that create dot-prefixed folders, and none of them are hidden either, so either they're all conspiring to make me look like the black sheep, or this convention just doesn't hold up on Windows.
