In the Houdini help I got this:

“You can optionally add the spare parameter Visible Objects from the Parameter Interface. This allows you to control which objects are displayed in the viewport when looking through the camera.”

But I can't find this spare parameter or any other option that can make my objects invisible to the camera in the viewport.

Any tips?

Thanks!

not sure it there is property that you can attach to your camera, but there is Visible Objects mask in Display Options/Optimization tab

Thanks for the tip, Yeah now I am aware about the general mask option but I was hoping to find a option by camera basis it´s more for flipbook purposes where I can hide stuff depending on the camera.

Thanks for the help dude!

I was just today looking for the same parameter after reading the docs. I could really use it, too.

I did find this on the help:

But I couldn't find this spare parameter from the parameter interface options.

I just came across this again. Any feedback from the staff is greatly appreciated.

Thank you
Andy

edit: I just found it by trial and error. The parameter name is ‘vobject’ same as in ROP.
