Hi Evbody,

The new Houdini allows choosing whether you want to use hscript or python. Does it apply to all places inside it, to all params, etc?

For example, what is a python equivalent of $TX, $TY, $TZ, etc?
And, is there a place, where such equivalents would be documented? I've searched the forum, I've searched the docs - all in vain.

I'll be grateful for help with this.

Cheers,
Greg

Have a look in here.

It's a great intro to some of the basic Python functions.

Thank you!

Your link directed me to the following:

In the Hscript expression language, you use $ to evaluate local variables, just like how you evaluate global variables. In Python, you use the lvar function. So, the Python equivalent of $TX is lvar(“TX”).

… which is exactly what I was looking for.
