I am viewing this tutorial which used Houdini 16 in which there is a hot gradient which visualizes the falloff in the bend node. The 'visualize falloff' checkbox is also there.

In Houdini 19.5 , I can't find any such option, neither the objects get visualized with a hot gradient.

How can I do that?

Looks like it was updated to the more generic visualizers system that uses attributes. Enable output attribute (capture) under the capture section, then click the 📍 to display it as a visualizer.

Awesome. Thank you so much! That did it. However, enabling the capture highlights the entire geometry in colour, even the parts which are not getting bent at all. I played with capture length settings but the entire geometry gets shaded in colour. How can I keep the areas unaffected by the bend remain unshaded, just like it happens in the video?
