Any chance to get it as download version I would like to read it on my ebook reader if it is possible.

Try this http://www.sidefx.com/docs/hdk12.0/download/hdk12.0_docs.tar.gz [sidefx.com].

I modified link that I had for H11 and it works also for H12. Just replaced 11.1 with 12.0.

Perfect thanks for this

Hi All,

Is there any way I can promote a parameter from vopnode with python ?. I was trying some other solution like find the parm type and all those stuff but nothing come good . And I didnt find any really helpful doc from houdini also maybe I didnt do a good search . So if any one has a idea how I can promote a parameter then it will be really helpful.

Thanks

You can use xarchx idea or you can create a otl also , attaching a example otl file.
