Hi, i have noticed Merge SOP in Houdini 20 behaves differently than in Houdini 19:
If you merge multiple inputs that have the same detail attribute (same name), in H19 you end up with an array of all incoming values. In H20 only first value is retained, and the rest is discarded.
This is well illustrated if you merge multiple Alembic SOPs with "abcFileName" detail string attrib enabled.
I know this can be worked around with intrinsics, but currently it's breaking some of my older setups. Is this intentional, or is it a bug? I'm on 20.0.590, before I was using 19.0.720.
thanks, D.
