Out of Gigabytes of Houdini training I own, this stands out as one of the most informative, practical and instantly re-usable.
As I am massively impatient - any news on when we can expect the follow up chapter (COPs)?
Many thanks again for providing such awesome training.

Houdini Indie and Apprentice » UI Issue - dialog boxes

Hi all,
I have a really quite frustrating problem; it seems by default all Houdini dialog boxes appear minimized on my start bar. This means a time wasting search clicking to find what i'm looking for.
Have I noobishly checked something I shouldn't or is it a OS thing (still on Vista so wouldn't be surprised)?
This happens on all pop-up dialog boxes and is hair-tearingly annoying. I'm using the latest version of Apprentice on a Windows (vista 64) system.
Hope you can help, also feel free to mock if it is mind numbingly simple to resolve.
Many thanks.

you can do it in SOPs with copy sop which will automatically use that attribute to orient copied object
The magical copy SOP - is there anything it can't do?
I used the copy SOP to copy the hook to the end point of my wire sim and it worked like a charm! Exactly what i was looking for. Many thanks Tamte for you super swift reply.
@Manu,
Thanks to the link to that thread - i have downloaded your linked file and will take a good look at it, thanks for your help.

Hi All,
Hopefully someone can help - I'm trying to create a metal chain with a hook on the end. I have successfully managed to create the wire sim driving the chain geometry but i can't figure out how to attach the hook on the end.
It seems like a relatively simple thing to do - i have managed to attach the hook with a rivet, but while this worked with position, it didn't have any rotation inherited so it looked wrong.
Does the hook have to be a RBD object to simulate accurately with the movement of the wire sim?
If someone could point me in the right direction, that'd be a great help.
Regards
Banks.
