Hi everyone,

I am still new in Houdini so your guide is valuable to me.

I would like to make a simple turntable in /stage context and I found some funcionalities that I found similar to what I aim for from this Houdini tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgTqz6y_oAs&ab_channel=Houdini). Is anyone here know a method to replicate or grab the Thumbnail generator functionalities within the component output node?

I am planning to replace the camera there with my custom camera setup and having the same spin, pitch, and distance parameters.

Thank you so much!

You could keep the base setup as you have it and save it out to a USD. Then create a simple HDA that references that file and adds some edit nodes to expose the parameters you need, like resolution size and promote them up a level.
