frame. The Reformat node forces the Read2 output to conform to the output format
established by the project settings. For additional information on the Reformat node,
see Chapter 5. The tutorial is complete (see Figure 1.34). A sample Nuke script is
included as
nuke1.nk in the Tutorials folder on the DVD.

Tips & Tricks: The Crop Node
The Crop node (in the Transform menu) allows you to reduce the resolution of an output
by cropping the image edges. The Box X, Y, R, and T cells define the left crop edge, bottom
crop edge, right drop edge, and top crop edge respectively. If the Reformat check box remains
unselected, the cropped area is rendered black and the frame edges remain unaffected. If the
Reformat check box is selected, the output resolution is forced to the cropped size.
