Hotkeys

B, Shift+B

About

This script allows you to quickly create a Backdrop with the B hotkey, while still allowing you to create a Blur node with the same hotkey. The idea is that you wouldn’t make a blur with 2+ nodes selected, so make a backdrop in that situation instead

How It Works

Create Blur Node: If 0-1 nodes are selected, press B to create a Blur node

Create Backdrop: If 2 or more nodes are selected, press B to create a backdrop around them

Create Backdrop Advanced: If 2 or more nodes are selected, press Shift+B to create a backdrop around them using a panel, that allows for customization and presets
