I understand that the numpad has diverse uses, not just in Houdini, but in various other software as well. But what irks me is that Houdini doesn't seem to support entering numbers when the cursor is in a number field, eg. when entering the count of scatter points. My muscle memory is just so adjusted to using numpad for entering numbers.
Am I missing something, or is this not implemented in Houdini Indie? I couldn't find anything in the user settings. I'm using the Linux edition 17.0.416, btw.
