Hello. I am struggling to find a way to automatically set/unset the "Save Operator Definitions to HIP file" option, which can be found in the "Asset Manager - Configuration" window. I have a Python Script, which packs up a project, so that it can be handed to another artist. In the process I would like to embed the HDAs in the HIP file. By default, I have the "Save Operator Definitions to HIP file" option turned of on my workstation. I just need it when saving a specific HIP file. Right now I can not fully automate this process because I always need to manually set the checkmark for HDA embedding before saving the HIP file and afterwards I manually unset the checkmark again.
Support provided me with a solution. There is no direct HOM function for configuring the Asset Manager Configuration. But there is a HScript command: otconfig [www.sidefx.com]. And HScript can be triggered through the hou.hscript() [www.sidefx.com] function.
In my case "Save Operator Definition to HIP File" would be activated/ deactivated with the following commands:
