Hi,

ex Soft - 4 months into Houdini assimilation...

How can I see/select all the animated channels/fcurves of nodes inside a geometry node without having to dive in and select the actual animated node(s) the animation is applied directly to?

Been trying to find a simple button but not much luck.

Thanks,

Adam.

Hey adamseeley,

I made the switch from XSI, too
I don't think there is an option to display all animated channels inside a geo node. But you can do this:
Set the preferences to display animated parameters only. then you can ctrl+A select all nodes inside a geo container and view all the channels.
The other better option is to utilize Channel groups. you can store all channels you want in them. so you always have them at hand from the curve editor. it requires a little bit of housekeeping but it pays off. I recommend assigning hotkeys for the commands create a group and add to the group.

Thanks, this is the nugget a friend pointed out though...
