Nuke-Python AutoBackdrop
This script fits a Backdrop node around selected nodes, names it, and assigns a random color. I used The Foundry’s Python example as reference, but again you will notice that I’ve approached it rather differently.
If no nodes are selected, a Backdrop is created in an arbitrary location. There is an input prompt for naming, because I hate unnamed Backdrops, however I’m not sure if it’s an annoying functionality, so it might come out in later versions. Another fix will likely be the color assignments, which currently are erring on the side of blue… It hasn’t been beta-ed, so holler any issues at me.

Once I get back to school I will be making it a hotkey and adding it to the menu.py, which I am looking forward to.
