Hi,

Is it possible to change the loaded/set asset preset in a programmatic way using python for example?
These are the presets defined in the IDX file. The reason for this is to enable some form of batching.

Thanks,
R.

I don't think they ever made it into python, but there are hscript commands.

… and if it's in hscript - you can call it in python with
hou.hscript("hscript_here")
