i usually using other ‘brand’ application and new to houdini. i use houdini apprentice for starting. here some of my problem:
1. i just try to do simple thing with houdini but seems i hit the wall. i ‘d like to know how to snap , in my case i want to move the pivot (handle) using ’ to bottom center of my tube(cylinder) so then i can scale from that point as ref, i tried all the snap option but seems that i only can snap to edge or point etc , but there's no way for me to move the handle to bottom center (which i can do with other 3d app).
the other problem is when i drag handle to snap let's say a curve, i'm hoping that the center of handle is the ref point that i like it to snap to curve, but i'm wrong. the fact that the point where i start clicking is the ref point that will snap to target.
2. how to move obj in 2 directions simultaneously (for example in xy direction)?
3. i ‘m playing with houdini UI Interface color. i found some variable in resource and 3dscenecolor in config directory. but i couldn’t find some other var that i need to change, they're the variable that control the hilglight color of the object like ‘tab’ or ‘button’ and the outline color which ussually we can see around the text box in parameter window (green).
does anyone can help me.
