Hi there,

Hey does anyone know if it's possible get Houdini to auto select a preferred transform tool after you select an object?
This is something that existed in XSI and was super helpful for animating.

Thanks,

If you lock the parameter, handle for that component is removed from the gizmo manipulator (Show Handle tool).
E.g. On the box, lock the Scale and Rotation and on the sphere lock the Scale and Translation parameters.

I added this as an RFE #70964

the Character Picker has this ability…but it would be nice to have it on objects

Please submit this feature as an RFE (Request For Enhancement) to support.
There's at least one school like the old school!

Hey thanks guys. Yeah, it was a really nice tool for animating and I don't think it would be huge to implement. I saw someone had created a max script for it once.
