Standalone publisher, sequence info in task slecting

Hi, I’am wondering if it is possible to add information about sequence when selectiong task in standalone publiser? I dont want change context, just add information about sequence which shot is linked to. For now in our naming convention you dont know which task should be selected. It’ is possible without changing publisher toolkit, or better to change naming convention?

Hi Kemot, did you find a way to show the sequence for the tasks in the context selector? I also tried to find a solution but it seems to be buried deep in the context selector module.

Yeah we had this problem, and had an ugly hack I believe around
tk-framework-qtwidgets/v2.9.4/python/shotgun_search_widget
(which required an extra request to get the sequence, but oh well)

Thanks @mmoshev This confirms my impression that this can only be solved with an ugly hack.

Hi, I unfortunately didn’t find any “clean” way to do it, so best way is to try mmoshev solution

In general I would heavily advise not to have duplicate shotnames in any sort of pipeline.
if you have multiple shot0010’s then you should consider adding the sequence or even episode and showcode into the shotcode.

i.e.

TST_101_TRT_0010

Makes things much cleaner and easier to track anywhere.
