Hey everybody,

I'm looking for a radial menu that contains the tobobuild tools. so u can easily switch between tools while using tobobuild. if there is none, that would be sad. its one of the cases where a radial menu would make perfect sense.

in general, it would be great if there would be an easy way to create custom radial menus not only for creating nodes but for activating tools. view toggles (display points or so ) etc.
sidefx please!

Cheers

Hi Philipp,

You will probably need to do Python stuff to implement what you want.
And i agree that this would be nice…

Hey Olaf,

thanks for your help!

this is the problem for me. Do you know coincidentally how to switch to a tool via python?
and do you know where I can find commands that houdini uses internally?
for example. I want to change on the “view” radial menu the button double view to side by side view.

this is the code for double stacked.
radialmenu.setViewportLayout(kwargs, hou.geometryViewportLayout.DoubleStack, 1)

where can I find the code for side by side? this:
radialmenu.setViewportLayout(kwargs, hou.geometryViewportLayout.SideBySide, 1)
is not working.

Cheers
Philipp
