Merges an APEX rig graph from another SOP into this node.

When the dialog comes up, you can either choose from the list of nodes, or select the SOP in the network editor, which automatically selects the corresponding node in the dialog.

When turned on, the graph from Merge Graph is merged into this node as an APEX subnet node.

Imports compilable SOPs into this node’s APEX graph. APEX nodes can only be verbs, so only compilable SOPs can be imported into an APEX graph. In the dialog, you can select multiple nodes by holding ⌃ Ctrl while selecting. The parameters on the imported graph nodes are set to the same values as the original SOP node parameters.

Add conversion nodes where possible for all wires in the graph that connect ports with different types. Changes made will be written to the comment on the node.

Add Value<T> nodes for every in-place port that does not have an input, heuristically adding connections where needed when dealing with for each begin/end nodes. Changes will be written to the comment on the node.

Update all nodes that have outdated type names (maintained for backwards compatibility) to the current names. This graph may no longer load in older Houdini versions.

Creates an FK hierarchy of TransformObject graph nodes corresponding to the selected KineFX skeleton. A TransformObject node is created for each joint in the skeleton.

When the dialog comes up, you can either choose the skeleton from the list of nodes, or select the SOP in the network editor, which automatically selects the corresponding node in the dialog.

Uses the transforms of the selected KineFX skeleton to update the rest transforms of the FK hierarchy previously created by Import KineFX Skeleton. The names of the TransformObject nodes must match the skeleton joint names for this to take effect.

When the dialog comes up, you can either choose the skeleton from the list of nodes, or select the SOP in the network editor, which automatically selects the corresponding node in the dialog.

Takes the selected TransformObject nodes in the graph, connects them to a new SetPointTransforms node, and outputs a modified skeleton geometry. This updated graph can be used to transform a skeleton. See APEX geometry deformation for an example of a similar graph.

1. Select the TransformObject nodes in the graph.

2. Click Add SetPointTransforms.

A skeleton input is promoted in the graph (the skeleton is connected to the parms input node), a SetPointTransforms node is added to the graph with its input ports named according to the TransformObject names, and the same skeleton with its transforms updated is output.
