I discovered that you can use pane.setSplitFraction() and you need to call it on the python panels “resize” event, then you can ovveride whatever automatic resizing that takes places, in case anyone else runs into the same thing!

here is a little sing and a dance number to get a lop camera to nuke… 🙂
i have made a little set of helper nodes for nuke export. Nukem can send out cameras, meshes, and kineFX skeletons to nuke.
mostly intended for the obj/sops area. but this was a way to get a lop camera to play ball.
try it

play with my clothoid bend modifier!
i suppose someone could take the pain and make the bend pythonstate interface with it and make an HDA.
