Hi,

I need to copy parameters from one subnet to another.

When I try to do it in Edit Parameter Interface, I get this error :

“Node is outside subnet: / path from the node”

Its described here how to do it, but….:

Is there any other way to do it ? I want to copy part of Flip solver UI to WhiteWater solver.

thx

yes, works like a charm.

except one more thing. once parameters are copied, the source ones are being referenced(channeled) to the new one. I can quickly manually remove them, but is there any checkbox for that ?

thanks!

well if you just want to recreate the same layout as in other node without referencing anything
then just open Edit Parameter Interface of the node you want to copy from
select parameters
Copy
then open Edit Parameter Interface or Type Properties (for HDAs) of your node
Paste

or if you have imported the parameters from within Type Properties as you were doing (which automatically set's the links), just select them all and in Channels tab next to first channel click on the down arrow and choose Clear Links Of All Channels Of All Selected Parameters
Apply
